In the initial match, South Africa Women emerged victorious over India Women by 12 runs in Chennai, but the second Twenty20 International was canceled due to rain following South Africa’s innings on Sunday.
Preview
The South African women’s team has begun their tour of India with the Indian women’s team. The Proteas have lost all three ODI matches and a single Test match, but they have started the T20I series with a strong win. However, the second match, scheduled for July 7, was interrupted by rain after South Africa’s turn to bat. Currently, Team India women lead the series with a score of 1-0.
It’s worth noting that both teams are set to play in the third and final T20I game of the series, which is planned for July 9 at the MA Chidambaram Cricket Stadium in Chennai. The visiting team has a strong chance to win this game and complete a whitewash over the hosts. Yet, the Indian women’s team, led by Harmanpreet Kaur, is determined to recover from their recent defeat and level the series.
The upcoming game is crucial for the home team, as they have won the first two matches by 12 runs. Additionally, the second match was canceled due to heavy rain, but the Indian women’s team will need to win the last game of the tour to even the series after missing the opportunity to defeat the Proteas in the T20I series.
Pitch Report
