Both teams will ideally look to bat first upon winning the toss, with 130 being a good score at the venue.

Today's IR-W vs SA-W Dream11 match top picks

Wicketkeeper

Mary Waldron: Mary Waldron is one of Ireland's best batters, capable of playing both pace and spin well. She has slotted in at No. 3, with her ability to score big runs being key. With Trisha Chetty batting down the order, Waldron should get the nod today.

Batter

Laura Wolvaardt: Laura Wolvaardt didn't have the best of outings in the previous game, but she remains one of the best batters in world cricket. The South African can anchor an innings and shift gears at will, with her range of shots being noteworthy. Although she is slated to bat at No. 4, her experience and ability should make her a must-have in your IR-W vs SA-W Dream11 fantasy team.

All-rounder

Leah Paul: Leah Paul was the star of the show in the previous game, scoring a well-complied 47 and also chipping in with a wicket. While Paul's bowling prowess adds value, her ability to score big runs holds her in good stead. With the Irish all-rounder in good form, she is a good addition to your IR-W vs SA-W Dream11 fantasy team.

Bowler

Shabnim Ismail: Shabnim Ismail didn't have a great outing with the ball in the first game, bowling only three overs. The express pacer has a lot of experience and can swing the ball at a high pace early on. With the conditions suiting her style of bowling, Ismail should pick up a wicket or two in the game.
