Meghana has looked in decent touch with the bat. She has scored runs for the team in both games and will be a prime choice for the fantasy contests of the match.
Sophie Molineux (BAN-W)
Sophie Molineux has been the regular wicket-taker for the team. The Aussie spinner could be a game-changing choice for the match.
Meg Lanning (DEL-W)

Marizanne Kapp (DEL-W)
The South African all-rounder has been in brilliant form with both of her trades. She has been lethal with the new ball, and keeping her in the fantasy XI guarantees you some points, as Kapp is a genuine wicket-taker.
BAN-W vs DEL-W Differential Picks
Sophie Devine (BAN-W)
The Kiwi all-rounder can be destructive with the bat at the beginning of the innings. But she has not found her rhythm in the tournament so far. Devine might be ignored by many fantasy players in this game, making her a winning choice for fantasy contests.
Shafali Verma (DEL-W)
The Indian opener looked off-colours in the first match. But she got off the blocks in the second game and scored a dazzling half-century. However, the lack of consistency makes Shafali an excellent but risky choice for the game.
