Fast bowlers will extract some movement early on, but the wicket will improve with time. Batting will get easier. The 160-170 is chaseable, but if the team batting first can score over 175+, it can be difficult.

Probable Best Bowler Renuka Thakur has bowled well with the new ball and has contained the batters as well. For UPW-W, Shikha Pandey has proved to be the best bowler on the team. Today Match Prediction : GG-W have been poor in both departments, where UPW-W have the form on their side. Hence, we predict UPW-W to win this game.
