Australia W

After gaining two consecutive wins, Australia W will lock horns against Pakistan W in their last group stage bout. Australia have already clinched the elite semi-final berth with superlative wins against India and Barbados. In their last match, Australia wrapped-up wobbly Barbados for mere 64 runs and Meg Lanning-led team accomplished the easy target in just 8.1 overs.

Australia W will be eager to attain a hat-trick of wins and make-way into the semi-finals with an unbeaten track record. Australia’s deep batting line-up complemented well with their bowlers ability to grab wickets at crucial moments plays a key role in their overall performance. Beth Mooney was doomed in her past two outings and can be dropped in the final group stage match.

Pakistan W

Pakistan W has remained winless in the tournament so far, and their hope of making it to the knockout stage is next to impossible. The Women-In-Green are seated at the bottom of leaderboard in Group A where they have lost their past two fixtures against Barbados and India. In their last outing against India, Bismah Maroof-led side lost the one-sided match with an embarrassing 8-wicket defeat.

Pakistan W will definitely aim to wrap-up their Commonwealth Games journey with a brave win. Maroof & Girls are receiving lots of backlash for their powerless batting show in the tournament so far. Pakistan may introduce drastic changes in the playing XI and Aiman Anwer alongside Nida Dar can find a mention in the playing XI. On bowling front, Diana Baig and Anam Amin will be Pakistan’s hope for some early wickets.    

Topbets Prediction

Australia W are exhibiting a dominant run and are seen as the favorites to win Women’s T20 Commonwealth Games 2022’s gold medal. They have already defeated their biggest threat India and complimented it well with a win against Barbados. On the other hand, Pakistan is struggling badly and there is no respite for Women-In-Green.

Australia W are the undisputed favorites of Wednesday's match.
