The dynamic opener had scored a match-winning 130 against England in their campaign opener a couple of days ago and it seems that she has rediscovered her mojo just at the right time. The promising opener would yet again be looking to make a statement as the Aussies eye back-to-back wins. Haynes can be very destructive once she gets set and it would be difficult to stop her should see off the new ball without any hassles. The former world champions would be relying on her to provide a brisk start yet again. PROBABLE BEST BOWLER: ALANA KING Alana King was Australia’s star bowler in the last game who applied brakes on the reigning ODI world champions’ run chase with splendid bowling performance. She finished with figures of 3/59 from her 10 overs at an economy of 5.90 as the six-time World Cup winners came out on top in a high-scoring thriller. The leggie would once again be expected to provide some vital breakthroughs against the Women In Green, especially in the middle overs when she will be given the ball by her captain Meg Lanning. The Aussies would be hoping that she succeeds in spinning a web around the opposition batters.
