After 30 matches, just one remains at the Women’s World Cup.
Host India will face South Africa in Sunday’s final, and it got us thinking, who would make your team of the tournament?
We’ve got three different votes to help you pick your openers, remaining batters/all-rounders and bowlers.
We haven’t done a specific wicketkeeper vote because of the various roles many players fulfil in the women’s game, but please ensure you vote for someone to fill that role and we’ll include the most-voted in the final XI.
We’ll share the final team in our live text coverage of Sunday’s final. Enjoy!
