Team Analysis
England Women
- Positives: Nat Sciver-Brunt (captain, 2023 mein 77 runs vs India) aur Sophie Ecclestone (3/15, 2023 Mumbai T20I) team ke pillars hain. Home crowd ka support aur recent 3-0 series win vs West Indies confidence deta hai.
- Negatives: Pehle T20I mein 113 runs par collapse aur batting against wind mein struggle. Lauren Bell ke alawa bowling inconsistent thi.
India Women
- Positives: Smriti Mandhana (112 runs, 1st T20I) aur Shree Charani (4 wickets, debut) shandaar form mein hain. Harmanpreet Kaur ki wapsi team ko boost degi. 2024 mein 5 consecutive T20I jeete.
- Negatives: Middle order (Jemimah Rodrigues, Amanjot Kaur) kabhi-kabhi slow scoring rate se struggle karta hai, jaise 2nd T20I mein 64/3 halfway par.
Favorite Players
- Smriti Mandhana (India): Maiden T20I century (112 off 62, 1st T20I), wind ke against bhi timing perfect.
- Shree Charani (India): Debutant bowler, 4 wickets 1st T20I mein, Jemimah ko catch dekar impact banaya.
- Nat Sciver-Brunt (England): All-rounder, 2023 mein 77 runs vs India, clutch performer.
- Sophie Ecclestone (England): World-class spinner, 2023 mein 3/15, India ke middle order ko rok sakti hai.
Players to Watch Out For
- Harleen Deol (India): 1st T20I mein 94-run partnership, lekin 2nd T20I mein drop hui, inconsistent form.
- Lauren Filer (England): Bowler, 2nd T20I mein 1/42, costly spells ek chinta.

Pitch and Weather
Emirates Old Trafford ki pitch batting-friendly hai, average 1st innings score 160-170. Spinners ko late turn mil sakta hai. Weather clear rahega, temperature 15-20°C, lekin wind ek factor hoga, jaisa pehle T20I mein dekha gaya.
Prediction
India Women ka recent form (2-0 series lead) aur Mandhana-Charani ka performance unhe 60% jeet ka chance deta hai. England ke liye Sciver-Brunt aur Ecclestone ko chalna zaroori hai, lekin home ground par bhi chase mein struggle ho sakta hai. India likely jeetegi, lekin close contest expected hai.
