Team Analysis:

New Zealand Women:

Sophie Devine is a quality batter at the top order and can do well. She scored 108 in 127 balls in the game against West Indies Women and must be added to the fantasy team. Amelia Kerr is another quality all-rounder in the side and is a mandatory pick. She has scored 64 runs in three games, including a fifty against India, while picking 5-wickets in the tournament so far. Amy Satterthwaite has amassed 150-runs in three games so far and has maintained her reputation by contributing in every game. Lea Tahuhu is leading the pace attack for her side as she has picked 9-wickets in three games and has been in incredible form.

South Africa Women:

Laura Wolvaardt's vital contribution at the top of the order has been one of the reasons behind her side's incredible performance in the tournament. Her scores in the tournament have been 41, 75 and 77. She should be a mandatory pick in the fantasy team. Skipper Sune Luus has also been in good form recently and has performed well with the bat. She has scored 25, 62 and 36 in the tournament so far. Kapp is a quality all-rounder from the squad and must be included in the fantasy team.
