Malaysia Women vs Thailand Women Team Analysis

Malaysia Women

The side will be led by all-rounder Winifred Duransingam. Malaysia are yet to win a T20I against Thailand and they need to change the script in this tournament. They have lost all four previous T20Is against Thailand. Nepal won their first Asia Cup game as they beat UAE in the first game of the season and Malaysia might have their moment.

Thailand Women

20-year-old pace spearhead Thipatcha Putthawong has been given the responsibility of captaincy. Her side is yet to lose to Malaysia in T20Is and she needs to keep the winning run going.

Malaysia Women vs Thailand Women Key Factors

Pitch Conditions

The pitch is best suited to batting in the first half of the match. A score of around 150 or more will be challenging for the team chasing. However, a below-par score like Pakistan put up against India batting first will mean an easy chase for the team batting second.

Form And Fitness

This is the first game of the tournament for both teams and players should be all fit to play. There are no injury concerns as of now in both camps.

Tactical Acumen

Both teams have pretty inexperienced captains and pretty inexperienced teams overall. It will be interesting to see how they adjust to the conditions in Dambulla and how good are they at their decision-making
