EN-W vs IN-W Dream11 match top picks for 1st T20I

Top Wicketkeeper Pick

Richa Ghosh (14 matches, 191 runs, Average: 21.22)

Richa Ghosh has had a topsy-turvy career so far, averaging just over 20 in T20Is. However, she is striking at nearly 113 in the format, holding her in good stead. With Ghosh capable of scoring quick runs down the order, she is a good pick for your EN-W vs IN-W Dream11 fantasy team.

Top Batter Pick

Sophia Dunkley (31 matches, 305 runs, Average: 20.33)

Sophia Dunkley has been a top performer for England, scoring 82 runs in three matches during England's last bilateral series. She comes into the series on the back of a decent Hundred campaign with the Southern Brave. With Dunkley opening the batting, she is one to watch out for in this game.

Top All-rounder Pick

Alice Capsey (7 matches, 160 runs, 8 wickets)

Alice Capsey had a stunning start to her England career earlier in the summer. She was one of England's top performers in the Commonwealth Games, scoring 135 runs in five matches. With good form in The Hundred as well, Capsey is a top pick for your EN-W vs IN-W Dream11 fantasy team.

Top Bowler Pick

Renuka Singh (11 matches, 14 wickets)

Renuka Singh was another top performer in the Commonwealth Games, picking up 11 wickets in just five matches. Her ability to swing the new ball was key, as nine of her 11 scalps came in the powerplay. Given the conditions on offer, Renuka is a must-have in your fantasy team.

EN-W vs IN-W match captain and vice-captain choices

Smriti Mandhana

Smriti Mandhana is an elite batter who has been in good form coming into the series. Apart from a good Hundred campaign, she was one of the top run-scorers in the Commonwealth Games, amassing 159 runs in five matches. Given her experience in English conditions, Mandhana is bound to be a popular captaincy option.

Alice Capsey

Alice Capsey is expected to play a more prominent role with both the bat and ball in Natalie Sciver's absence. She had a good Hundred campaign, scoring over 100 runs and chipping in with eight wickets. With Capsey being in fine form, she is a handy captaincy choice for your EN-W vs IN-W Dream11 fantasy team.

EN-W vs IN-W match expert tips for 1st T20I

England lack serious firepower in their pace attack, with Katherine Brunt and Natalie Sciver unavailable. Issy Wong and Lauren Bell are expected to share the pace workload, but their inexperience could go against them. This should allow Indian openers Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma to score quick runs in the powerplay phase.
