England women will take on the West Indies women (ENG-W vs WI-W) in the last league stage game of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 on Tuesday. The venue for this match will be the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, and it will begin at 7:30 PM IST.
England women are at the top of the table in Group B with 3 wins in 3 matches. They defeated Scotland women by 10 wickets in their last game – thanks to an excellent performance from Danielle Wyatt-Hodge (51* runs) and Maia Bouchier (62* runs). The bowlers have been in top form for England and they’ll look to win this game and confirm their place in the semi-finals.
West Indies have won their last two games after they lost to South Africa in their first game. The bowlers have done a great job and the top order has also done well in the last two games. It’s a do-or-die game for the West Indies and they must win this to qualify for the semi-finals. Hayley Matthews and her side must be at their best in this match.

EN-W vs WI-W Dream11 Prediction: Pitch Report
The pitch will be a balanced one with something for everyone. The batters can play their shots once they are set and the pacers will get some help with the new ball. Spinners, as usual, will get good purchase off the deck. Run scoring will be demanding and it will get difficult to bat on with the spinners coming into play in the second innings.
Chasing sides have won 5 out of 9 matches at Dubai in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 so far – and teams are expected to prefer chasing, but batting first will be a good option as well. The average first innings score here is 125 runs. Expect it to be around 130-150 for this match.
Fantasy Value from Pitch Report
- Try to pick all the bowlers, especially England in your fantasy teams.
- West Indies are over-dependent on Hayley Matthews and Deandra Dottin with the bat. Avoid picking other batters from the West Indian side.
- Try to pick all the bowlers from England as anyone can pick a wicket or two.
- Spinners and all-rounders will be the best C/VC options.
ENG-W vs WI-W Dream11 Prediction: Must Picks

- She will be an excellent C/VC choice against the West Indies who are struggling with the bat.
Hayley Matthews (WI-W)
