The Commonwealth Games 2022 is going to be a witness of the mother of all rivalries as the Women's team of India and Pakistan take the field against each other on the 31st of July, 2022 at Birmingham, Edgbaston.

Both the teams will be looking to win the match as they have started their respective campaigns with a defeat in the first match. Let us pick up some tips on how to build a team in case of fantasy eleven for the match.


Captain and Vice Captain Picks

Harmanpreet Kaur: Although in a losing the Indian skipper looked in good touch in India's fist match. She scored 52 runs in the match and has the form with her. She can be a good pick as a captain or vice captain for the match.

Renuka Singh Thakur: Renuka Singh Thakur bowled a magical spell for India in the first match where she dismantled the Australian top-order picking up 4 important wickets. Her inswingers might cause trouble to the Pakistani top order, who are not that well equipped to play proper swing.

Nida Dar: Nida Dar is also in a  good touch having scored a half-century in their first outing. Being a steady batter, she could be an important point-raiser in the match and hence a great candidate as a captain or vice captain.


Game Changers

Shafali Verma: In the first match, Shafali set the tone for her team to go past 180 runs. The middle order failed to capitalise on the brisk start she gave them. 

If she finds her touch she could take the game away from the opposition in a matter of overs. But her aggressive batting approach makes her a risky choice, though having her in the team can earn you some valuable points. 

Diana Baig: The leader of the Pakistani bowling line-up will like to take down the Indian top order and give her team an upper hand in the match. Given she finds her rhythm early, she could be a great pick for the match. 

Bismah Maroof: Harmapreet Kaur's counterpart failed to fire in the first match. It would be safe to say that Maroof is the mainstay of the Pakistani middle order. She will be eager to go big against their arch-rivals and change the complexion of the game, in the process could give some vital points in fantasy leagues.
