  • Head-to-Head (recent): EZ-W W, WZ-W L → slight mental edge to East.

  • Context: West arrive on a five-match winning run, but this low-scoring venue (avg first inns ~111) has repeatedly boosted East’s core—S Dibyadarshini, J Kalita, A Kumari, S Ishaque—who top the venue charts. Expect a scrap decided by bowling & multi-skill all-rounders.

Powerplay & Death Overs Impact

  • Powerplay (0–6):

    • EZ-W: Ishaque (LAO) + Kalita/T Sadhu are wicket threats.

    • WZ-W: S Thakor new-ball; look for early movement.

  • Death (16–20):

    • EZ-W: T Sadhu and Kalita likely at the back end; wicket + dot potential.

    • WZ-W: R Yadav / A Patil candidates to finish; death wickets can spike scores.

  • Chasing bias: Pace edges spin late here → death-overs seamers gain 2nd-innings upside.

Key Fantasy Picks

MVP (C/VC) Tier

  • S Dibyadarshini (AR, EZ-W): Best venue record; contributes both ways; high floor.

  • J Kalita (BOW, EZ-W): Strike bowler with ceiling (recent 163).

  • S Ishaque (BOW, EZ-W): PP wickets + eco; bonus-friendly.

Safe Core

  • A Kumari (AR, EZ-W) – role security, steady points.

  • T Sadhu (BOW, EZ-W) – touches PP/Death, wicket involvement.

  • S Thakor (BOW, WZ-W) – West’s most bankable bowler.

Differentials / Punts

  • T Hasabnis (BAT, WZ-W): Recent 94; if West bat first, great platform pick.

  • H Kazi (AR, WZ-W): 125 last game; tiny sample—boom/bust.

  • A Patil (BOW, WZ-W): 72 in last at venue set; viable death-overs punt.

  • M Paul (AR, EZ-W): Lumpy form but “x-factor” impact.

Suggested Dream11 Combination (Pre-toss)

WK (1): R Gudia (EZ)
BAT (3): J Rodrigues (WZ), T Hasabnis (WZ), D Gujjar / P Luthra (EZ)*
AR (3): S Dibyadarshini (C) (EZ), A Kumari (EZ), S Satghare / H Kazi (WZ)*
BOW (4): J Kalita (VC) (EZ), S Ishaque (EZ), T Sadhu (EZ), S Thakor (WZ)

Bench pivots: R Yadav (WZ BOW), A Patil (WZ BOW), K P Navgire (WZ BAT – high risk/high reward)

Team logic: Bowling-heavy 7/4 tilt (incl. ARs) suits a low-scoring, wicket-rich venue. East core anchors (form + venue), West’s best two bowlers balance exposure.

Final Fantasy Tips & Toss Scenarios

  • If EZ-W bat first:

    • Keep 3–4 EZ bowlers (Ishaque, Kalita, Sadhu) + Dibyadarshini (C).

    • Add a West death bowler (Thakor/R Yadav) to chase wickets late.

  • If WZ-W bat first:

    • Upgrade Hasabnis/Navgire exposure; retain East bowling core for PP breakthroughs.

    • Consider A Patil as a punt if she’s slated to bowl at death.

  • If it’s a chase:

    • Slightly upgrade pacers on the bowling side (death-overs value).

  • Safety vs Upside:

    • Safe: Dibyadarshini, Kalita, Ishaque, A Kumari.

    • Upside punts: Kazi, Navgire, A Patil.

Captaincy Ladder: 1) S Dibyadarshini 2) J Kalita 3) S Ishaque 4) A Kumari
Vice-Captain Alternatives: T Sadhu, S Thakor (if West bowl first)
