6. Eimear Richardson(C)
7. Gemma Adams
8. Hayley Jensen
9. Felicity Leydon Davis
10. Lauren Heaps
11. Emma Black
– Eimear Richardson looks safest captain pick as she’s scoring decent 20-25 runs and taking a couple of wickets consistently.
– Brooke Halliday might be a good punt VC as she’s opening the innings for Northern & bowling 2-3 overs too.
– Katey Martin is failing from last two matches so she might be a good punt in SL.
– Lauren Heaps is bowling full 4 overs so preferred her over other bowlers who are getting only 1-2 overs.
– Gemma Adams is another safe pick especially while batting first.

2. Brooke Halliday
3. Kate Anderson

5. Nensi Patel
6. Eimear Richardson
7. Gemma Adams

9. Felicity Leydon Davis(C)
10. Charlotte Sarsfield
11. Emma Black
– Felicity Leydon Davis is another safe captain pick as she’s batting at three down & bowling full 4 overs.
– Hayley Jensen can be a good punt VC as she’s failing from last couple of matches. Since she’s batting at two down & bowling 2-3 overs too so making her VC might be worth a risk.
– Caitlin Blakely will be a good pick especially while batting first. She’s failing to score from last couple of matches so might look to that in this game.
– Nensi Patel is getting to bowl full overs & batting at middle orders. She can give decent 40-50 points in D11.

1. Katey Martin(VC)
2. Brooke Halliday
3. Caitlin Gurrey
4. Millie Cowan
5. Caitlin Blakely
6. Hayley Jensen(C)
7. Nensi Patel
8. Gemma Adams
9. Felicity Leydon Davis
10. Lauren Heaps
11. Emma Black
– Expecting both Katey Martin & Hayley Jensen to makeup for their failures of last two matches.
– Millie Cowan might be a good GL pick as she’s opening the innings for Otago & might bowl a couple of overs if required.
– Nensi Patel & Gemma Adams both can be other GL picks as they’re batting in top six & bowling full overs too
