IND-W vs ZIM-W Fantasy Team For for Small League 

Here is a suggested fantasy team 1 for the IND-W vs ZIM-W 2nd ODI.

Captain: Smriti Mandhana
She has 501 runs at an average of 55.67 in her last 10 ODIs. She opens the batting, so she gets the most balls to score, and the pitch here was on the flatter side in the first game.

Vice-Captain: Deepti Sharma
She has 21 wickets in her last 10 ODIs, more than anyone in this match, and she can also bat. She took 6/31 at this ground in 2024, so she knows how to bowl here.

IND-W vs ZIM-W Fantasy Team for Grand League 

Here is a suggested fantasy team 2 for the IND-W vs ZIM-W 2nd ODI.

Captain: Shree Charani
She took 4/23 in the first ODI and has 19 wickets in her last 10 ODIs. Spinners took 7 of Zimbabwe’s 10 wickets last time, and very few people will make her captain, which gives this team a real edge if she does well again.

Vice-Captain: Pratika Rawal
She averages 63.67 in her last 8 ODIs, the best of any batter in this match. Most people will pick Mandhana over her, so if Rawal scores big, this team moves well ahead of the crowd.

IND-W vs ZIM-W Pitch Report – Kotambi Stadium, Vadodara

Kotambi has been a good batting pitch. In the first ODI, the pitch was on the flatter side, and India’s batters found it easier to score as the chase went on.

Spinners still play a big role here. India’s spinners took 7 of Zimbabwe’s 10 wickets in the first game, with Shree Charani taking 4/23. Fast bowlers can also strike early, as Renuka Singh’s 5 wickets here in 2024 showed.

Three of the five ODIs here saw 300 or more in the first innings. Teams bowling first have now won 3 of the 5 ODIs at this ground.

IND-W vs ZIM-W Toss Prediction

IND-W vs ZIM-W Today Match Prediction

Prediction: India Women to Win

India were far too strong in the first ODI. Mandhana and Rawal give them a reliable start, and their spinners, led by Shree Charani and Deepti Sharma, control the middle overs.

Zimbabwe need a much better batting effort and early wickets from Nyasha Gwanzura. But India look a level above and should take a 2-0 series lead.
