VCT-W vs NSW-W Dream11 Prediction: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Today's Playing 11 and Pitch Report for Women's National Cricket League, Match 3

The third match of the Women's National Cricket League will have Victoria Women (VCT-W) taking on NSW Breakers (NSW-W) at the Junction Oval in Melbourne on Sunday.

The Breakers overcame a spirited Victorian challenge in the previous game to start their Women's National Cricket League campaign on the right note. They had Erin Burns to thank for her blitzkrieg with the bat. Besides Burns, they have a heap of bonafide stars to fall back on, making them the clear favorites for this game. However, Victoria will be keen to make amends following a false start. With the likes of Annabel Sutherland and Ellyse Perry in their ranks, Victoria should prove to be a handful for New South Wales in this much-awaited clash in Melbourne.

Pitch Report

As seen in the previous round, the pitch at the Junction Oval is a decent one to bat on. Despite the surface being a batting-friendly one, it should provide help to the pacers with movement and extra bounce expected early on. There was some turn available for the spinners in the previous game, a trend that is expected to continue in this fixture. Wickets in hand will be key for both teams, with 270 being par at the venue.
