Bokaro Blossoms will take on Jamshedpur Jasmines in the Jharkhand Women's T20 Trophy at the JSCA International Stadium in Ranchi on Sunday. It will be the second encounter between the teams this season. Bokaro Blossoms convincingly won the corresponding fixture by 78 runs.
Since that defeat, Jamshedpur Jasmines have won two consecutive games against Dumka Daisies and Dhanbad Daffodils. They would want to extend their winning streak in the Jharkhand Women's T20 Trophy when they face Bokaro Blossoms.
Jamshedpur's opening pair of Rashmi Gudiya and Sandhya Kumari have been in scintillating form. On the bowling front, Priti Tiwary and Reena Khalkho have delivered economical spells in addition to picking up wickets.
Bokaro, on the other hand, lost their previous encounter against Dumka Daisies. While opener Indrani Roy has been consistent, the other batters need to step up their game.
Bowling has been Bokaro Blossoms' strong point, with the trio of Pallavi Bhardwaj, Arti Kumar, and Neha Kumari Shaw consistently choking the opposition with their economical spells.
Sunday's Jharkhand Women's T20 game is crucial for both teams. While a victory will take Jamshedpur Jasmines into the top four, Bokaro Blossoms will remain atop the standings if they emerge victorious.
