West Indies Women vs Australia Women Prediction, 2nd T20I – Who will win today’s match between WI W vs AUS W?

West Indies Women will lock horns with Australia Women in the second T20I of the three-match series on Sunday, March 22 at Arnos Vale Ground, Kingstown, St Vincent.

In the first T20I, Australia bagged a comprehensive win. The tourists batted first after winning the toss and Beth Mooney's solid 79 set the foundation for them to post an above-par total of 164/6 on a tricky surface. In reply, the West Indies battled hard but couldn't manage to up the ante. The required rate climbed higher and higher with each passing over and in the end, the home side was restricted to 121/6.

Qiana Joseph and Stafanie Taylor got starts but couldn't accelerate after getting themselves set at the crease. The Caribbean side will have to bounce back strongly against the mighty Australians. Another defeat would make the third T20I inconsequential.

WI W vs AUS W Match Details

Arnos Vale Ground, Kingstown, St Vincent: Pitch Report

Pitches are generally low and slow at the Arnos Vale Ground in Kingston. The average first-innings score is around 130-140 and Australia did really well to get to 164. The captain who wins the toss would want to bat first as the pitch becomes more difficult for batting in the second innings. It is important for batters to spend some time in the middle before going for the big hits. Playing straight down the ground should also be prioritised instead of hitting across the line.

WI W vs AUS W Probable Best Performers of the Match

Probable Best Batter: Beth Mooney

Beth Mooney would hold the key for Australia once again with the bat. She would look to make the most of the field restrictions inside the power play. The new ball also comes onto the bat better and she could make it count. Mooney would like to anchor the innings, much like she did in the first T20I with her 79-run knock off 55 balls.

Probable Best Bowler: Alana King

Alana King will have the conditions in her favour and would want to continue from where she left off in the previous game. The veteran leg-spinner finished with remarkable figures of 3/14 in the last match during her four-over spell.
