North Zone Women and South Zone Women will clash against each other in the opening match of the Senior Women's Inter Zonal T20 Trophy 2025-26 on Monday, November 3. The game will be played at the Nagaland Cricket Stadium in Sovima and will begin at 10:00 AM local time.

North Zone-W vs South Zone-W Chance of Winning

North Zone Women will begin their Inter Zonal T20 Trophy campaign without their star players due to international fixtures. They won two and lost two of five matches last season to finish fourth in the points table. They are one of the two teams without a final appearance in the tournament’s history. They will be expecting a strong start from their openers, Shweta Sehrawat and Taniyaa Bhatia, in the absence of captain Shafali Verma.

Meanwhile, South Zone Women will target a positive start to the new season after finishing as the runners-up in the first-class tournament earlier this year. In the last edition of the Inter Zonal T20 Trophy, the South Zone registered two wins in five matches to finish fifth in the points table. The team lacks international stars, but boasts a few rising stars this season who have played in the WPL.

North Zone-W vs South Zone-W Prediction & Betting Tips 2025

With the likes of Shafali Verma and Amanjot Kaur missing this opening game, North Zone will look up to Puranika Sisodia to deliver. The 20-year-old spinner made the headlines in the last edition by picking the joint-most 8 wickets in five innings. Sisodia has been in excellent form lately with seven wickets in her last five T20 innings. She can be tipped to pick up multiple wickets in this fixture on Monday.

South Zone Women have made plenty of changes to their T20 setup this year, with the focus being on the youngsters. Vrinda Dinesh is expected to be their best batter, having played regularly in the last two WPL tournaments. She has been in red-hot form lately with 316 runs in just nine innings for the Karnataka Women in the Women’ Senior T20 Trophy. Dinesh is expected to continue her good form with a big knock in this fixture.

North Zone-W vs South Zone-W Match Toss Prediction

The pitch at the Nagaland Cricket Stadium in Sovima offers a balanced surface in white-ball cricket. However, the fans can expect a fresh wicket with a bit of grass for the opening few matches. Spin bowlers are expected to gain some advantage in the second innings, so the captains are likely to choose to bowl first after winning the toss in this match.

Weather Report

There is a weather forecast for rain leading up to the match, but the clouds are expected to clear during the play. The temperature is expected to be around 26 degrees Celsius throughout the match, with an air humidity of 82%.
