TL-W vs ND-W Dream11 : Series culminator sees Thailand and Netherlands square off against each other as Thailand look to walk away with the showpiece trophy under their arms
Advertisement
Ever since the onset of the Euro-Asia Quadrangular Series, there has been one team which has stood tall amongst the four sides indulging in the marquee series. Thailand have been the unprecedented rulers of this series, making light work of sides with will to showcase the massive strides the team has taken over the course of the last year.
Whilst Scotland have matched them at every step when it comes to points, it’s been not just the wins but the manner in which they have come about for Thailand which have made heads turn. The side have cleaned apart their opponents with such rampant and exuberant might, intertwining their abilities with both the bat and ball to perfection to dominate matches.
And befittingly sitting in the pinnacle of the points tally, Thailand know they can get their hands around the glistening trophy today with a win against Netherlands. On a record winning spree, Thailand are today up against an opposition they’ll be quietly confident of obliterating, a side who have been besmeared by everyone in the series.
The only team to yet record a win in the series, Netherlands find themselves slumped in bottom spot, falling to a shambolic defeat yesterday only to Scotland. With their run chase curtailed to just 60 as they went out in pursuit of Scotland’s 148, the side ended up losing by 62 runs through the DLC method, a result which yet again ascertained the massive problems pulling the side down.
TL-W vs ND-W Pitch Conditions And Toss
Where the opening match of the day under the sun has supported the pacers, this pitch has relatively settled down in the ensuing encounter. Batting first in this encounter should be a sublime task for the batters with the ball coming nicely onto the bat, making it easy to cue the ball and traverse your way to the boundary with relative ease.
The side winning the toss here will be looking to bat first if rain doesn’t play havoc. In the eventuality of rain, something which is ever looming, the side winning the toss will be looking to come out and field first.

TL-W vs ND-W Dream11 Picks
Wicket-Keepers for TL-W vs ND-W Dream11
Her side’s top scorer, opener Babette de Leede made a straightaway entry into our playing 11 for this encounter. The opener as been in terrific touch, helping her side put on whatever runs they have been able to muster and if they are to make things jittery for Thailand today, she’ll need to up the ante once again.
From Thailand we are picking up Nannapat Koncharoenkai after she came up with yet another astounding display with the bat in the side’s rampant win over Ireland yesterday,
Batswomen for TL-W vs ND-W Dream11
That 7 wicket win by DLS method as Thailand ended up at 67-3 in their pursuit of Ireland’s 87, also saw instrumental contributions from the rest of Thailand’s top-order, a trivalent which has been pivotal to their consummate success in the series. Nattakan Chantam is one such player, a consistent performer who has stitched several meaningful partnerships for her side this campaign.
W have also picked up Soraya Lateh from the side only due to a massive dearth of options from Netherlands with only Juliet Post coming across as someone who can be indulged in from the side.
All-Rounders for TL-W vs ND-W Dream11
A major reason for Chantam’s success has also been down to her opener, Nattaya Boochatham, someone who might just end up with the player of the series award. She’s been at the top of her game this series, making the most of the field restriction to amass a bagful of runs along with knowing when to keep her intent in check and play out the balls.
Chanida Sutthiruang comes in as well from the side Annemijn Van Beuge is our only selection from Netherlands yet again.
Bowling Order for TL-W vs ND-W Dream11
Whilst we were yearning to see our entire bowling trio consist of picks from Thailand, the composition of our side forced us to indulge in a name from Netherlands as well. We ended up leaving out Ratanaporn from Thailand after she ended yesterday’s encounter wicketless, instead going for the deadly partnership of spinner Onnicha Kamchomphu and Sornnarin Tippoch.
One thing which Netherlands have made clear across their stay in the series is that they are the worst batting side by some distance and there is a very realistic probability of them getting bundled out today. And Onnicha might just end up snaring the majority of the wickets with her spin seeing her emerge as her side’s leading wicket taker till now.
From Netherlands we have Leonie Bennet complete our side for this encounter.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Nattaya is our side’s captain today while Onnicha has been selected as the vice-captain.
