India women and England women will clash for a berth in the final of the Commonwealth Games 2022. A win in the semi-final will secure at least a silver medal for the team. Both India and England played good cricket in the league stage. India hammed Pakistan and Barbados while suffering a close loss against Australia to qualify for the semis. The team has played good cricket, especially the bowlers, who have been terrific. They will be very confident going into the semis.
Meanwhile, England also enjoyed a decent run in the group stage and didn’t lose a single game. Both these teams are powerhouses and fans can brace themselves for a cracking game.
The wicket in Birmingham has been a good one to bat. The new ball has swung for the first few overs but overall, it has been a good batting deck. Both teams will fancy scoring big here.
The weather will be bright and sunny. Though there will be a few patches of clouds around, rain is unlikely to affect it. The temperature will range between 20 to 15 degrees.

Known as Lady Viru, Shafali can be the game changer for India. She is someone who likes to play aggressively and take the attack to the opposition. She played a good knock of 43 in last game before being run out. She is a good player to have.
Harmanpreet Kaur is another important player from team India. While she is someone who can play a quickfire knock and change the complexion of the game, her bowling will be equally important for India.
The highest wicket-taker for England in T20Is, Ecclestone has enjoyed a great tournament. Indians have had struggled in past against left-arm spinners and Ecclestone is one of the best in business. She will be key for England.
What a find she has been for India. After blowing away Australia in the first game, she picked 4 wickets against Barbados as well. She has swung the ball both ways and has created all sorts of trouble for batters.
She bowled a spell of 3 overs for 4 runs and 2 wickets against NZ-W. No wonder she is one of the best bowlers going around in world cricket.
