IND-W vs ENG-W: Team Previews
India Women
The series so far has been a tale of contrasting fortunes. Led by Harmanpreet Kaur, the team put in a decent batting performance in the first T20I but fell short by 38 runs. Their woes deepened in the second match, where they were bowled out for a dismal 80, succumbing to a four-wicket defeat.
Experienced players like Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur have been unable to make their mark, leaving the team's batting lineup in disarray. As they prepare for the final match, the Indian team faces a challenging task to reassemble and challenge the formidable England side.
England Women
On the other hand, England has showcased a balanced performance with both their batting and bowling departments firing on all cylinders in the first game.
Their bowlers, particularly, have been in sensational form, with each claiming at least one wicket in the second match. Though their batting faltered slightly, they managed to clinch the game with four wickets in hand. The English side will now look to continue with the winning momentum and register a white wash.

IND-W vs ENG-W: Mumbai Pitch Report
Wankhede Stadium, with its reputation as a batter's paradise, promises a high-scoring game. The pitch, known for facilitating smooth stroke play, will likely see the batters dominating. However, pacers can look forward to some early movement with the new ball. The series has seen both teams winning a game each, batting first and chasing, with the first match being a run-fest and the second a showcase of bowling dominance. The trend suggests that pace bowling could play a bug role in the final game. With the possibility of dew later in the evening, the captain winning the toss might opt to field first.
