– Annabel Sutherland looks safest captain choice considering her opening batting order and full overs with the bowl.
– Nicola Carey might be a good VC choice as she’s expected to bat at three down and bowl atleast 2-3 overs.
– Ruth Johnston might be a decent credit saver pick as she’s opening up the innings and bowling a couple of overs too.
– Can take anyone from Flintoff or Sophie Day as both are expected to bowl full overs and holds good numbers in H2H innings.
– Tayla Vlaeminck should be preferred over Molly Strano especially if Hobart Hurricanes bowls first.
