10. Sarah Coyte
11. Amanda Wellington
– Tahila McGrath looks safest captain choice considering her current good form with both bat and ball.
– Taking punt on Dane Van Niekerk as VC since she’s opening up the innings and bowling full four overs.
– Can take anyone from Bridget Patterson or Katie Mack as both are expected to bat in top six.
– Expecting Mignon Du Preez to score atleast decent runs in this match after getting failed in last couple of innings.
– Can take Tayla Vlaeminck at the place of Molly Strano especially if Hobart Hurricanes bowls first.
– Sarah Coyte and Amanda Wellington are must picks considering their current good forms and good numbers at H2H innings.

10. Amanda Wellington
11. Sarah Coyte
– Dropped Rachel Priest to take Richa Ghosh as she might not go big in two consecutive matches.
– Nicola Carey can be another good VC choice considering her three down batting order and full overs with the bowl.
– Katie Mack might be a decent punt as she’s due to score runs in this tournament.
– Expecting atleast a couple of wickets from Tayla Vlaeminck especially while bowling first.
– Dropped Ruth Johnston also as she might not take 2fer or 3fer in two consecutive matches.
