Form Guide:
THU: W
WS: L
Emma Lamb, Georgia Boyce, Eleanor Threlkeld, Rebecca Duckworth, Natalie Brown, Laura Marshall, Laura Jackson, Danielle Collins, Sophia Turner, Alex Hartley (c), Hannah Jones
Emma Lamb is a very good all-rounder, opens the batting, and bowls regularly in every match, which makes her a value pick she won the player of the match last game scoring 58 runs at a strike rate of 134.8, and returning with figures of 4-1-13-4 with the ball. Default captain for this match
N Brown scored 25 runs at a strike rate of 80.64 and she is good with her medium pace picking up 1/23 in the last match. She will be a good alternative choice for captaincy.
Alex Hartley is a former England player who is a very good left-arm spinner and bowls good lines and lengths (0/26 in the last match).
Georgia Boyce is an opening batter and has plenty of experience in the domestic circuit, she can be a good choice for this match given that she will open the batting against a slightly weaker opposition attack.
Fi Morris, Georgia Hennessy, Danielle Gibson, Sophie Luff (c), Katie George, Alex Griffiths, Natasha Wraith, Lauren Parfitt, Emily Edgcombe, Emma Corney, Nicole Harvey
Sophie Luff, the captain is the main player of this team, she scored 31 runs in the previous match at a strike rate of 93.3. She is the best pick from this team.
A Griffiths is a good allrounder who failed with the bat the last match but did well with the ball (1/24), she will be a good pick.
G Hennessy is another all-rounder who is capable of giving good points, She scored 18 runs in the last match and bowled economically ( 0/23 in 3 overs)
Fi Morris is a talented player who looked out of form in the previous game and bowled just the 1 over conceding 15 runs, she can be a good differential pick for this match.
In THU vs WS Dream11 match prediction, Thunder looks very strong on paper compared to Western Storm who lack match winners and depend on a few players, so expect Thunder to win this match.
