WI-W vs AU-W Dream11 : Horrid West Indies look to save themselves from the embarrassment of a series sweep
Advertisement
While the hosts were well aware of the fact that the ongoing series against Australia was never going to be an easy for them, the way they have gone down has made for horrendous viewing. They have fallen apart like a house of cards on the batting front, failing to cover themselves in glory with some absolutely torrid performances to concede the series to Australia ahead of today’s culminating encounter.
Facing off against Australia for the final time, for West Indies, the narrative is all about salvaging something from what has been an otherwise besmirched time out in the middle for them. Their predicament was perfectly epitomised in the previous encounter, a 9 wicket defeat where they were outplayed with both the bat and ball to face a chastening defeat.
Batting first, the side managed to muster up just 97-9, a target which was never going to perturb this dauntless Australia side who dismissed it from their sights with disdain. After having completed a sweep in the ODI series, they’ll now be looking to seal a 3-0 win in the T20 series today as well and manifest how much they have dominated their opponents this series.
Pitch Conditions And Toss
An adverse surface for batting, the conditions and track prevelant here have left the batters in disarray. This is a wicket where the ball grips and stops before coming onto the bat, a wicket which is only going to get slower as the match traverses.
It’s a script which should lead the side winning the toss choosing to bat first and piling the pressure on their opponents with runs on the scoreboard.

WI-W vs AU-W Match Prediction
2019 has been a terrible time for West Indies, with the side being dismissed by England earlier in the year and now failing to put on any kind of challenge infront of Australia. And they have no one but themselves to blame with their being a clear lack of willingness to apply themselves in the middle and bat it out through sticky periods to craft fighting totals for themselves.
It will deter them today as well on a pitch which is going to leave them famished, a match where Australia will cruise to a win to win the series 3-0.

WI-W vs AU-W Dream11 Wicket-Keeper
With 58 in 23 balls, Australia’s Alyssa Healy was always going to be an instant pick for us in this facet. The opener has kept scoring for her side ever since the onset of the ODI series and looks good for another good score in today’s match as well.
WI-W vs AU-W Dream11 Batswomen
Even if Australia bat first or second, we can’t see Went Indies getting past their top-order in today’s encounter despite the conditions and wicket on offer. Their bowlers have been nothing to write home about, tussling it out with Australia’s batters all across to series to end up on the losing side each and every time.
We’ll be selecting Australia’s top-order due to this with Meg Lanning being the first pick after her 22 the last time around as she and Healy were involved in a match inning 54 run stand for their side. Elsewhere from West Indies we have chosen the two bats despite their batting being absolutely horrid in a bid to open up options from Australia in the bowling facet with Natasha McLean and Chinelle Henry both opted by us.
WI-W vs AU-W Dream11 All-Rounders
Elyse Perry hasn’t gotten much time to bat in the middle in this series with her not coming out at all the last time around but her escalated role in the order along with the ascertained four overs with the ball mean we have to pick her for this match. With 2-19, legspinner Jess Jonassen is selected by us as well for today’s encounter while we have the two players come in from West Indies as well for today.
Stafanie Taylor had to be an instant pick for us given her dauntless nature of play, the only player who has looked interested in contribute with both the bat and ball in a despondent display by her side.. Chinelle Henry will be her partner for today’s encounter after her cameo of 21 saved the side from faltering for a meagre total.
WI-W vs AU-W Dream11 Bowling Order
In comes a duo from Australia and rightfully so given how much they have dominated their opponents all throughout the series. Frontline pacer and new ball operator, Megan Schutt is there as ever for us along with Georgia Wareham with her legspin bound to leave the opposition in tatters.
The lone selection from West Indies see us opt for Shabika Gajnabi to wrap up our side for this match.
