Match Preview

As we enter the second week of the ongoing Women’s ODI World Cup, India Women take on South Africa in a crucial match on Thursday. India has been unbeaten so far, winning both its matches by a relatively comfortable margin. However, there are some issues, especially in the batting line-up, that the team needs to iron out.

On the other side is South Africa. After suffering a humiliating defeat at the hands of England, they bounced back during the match against New Zealand to earn their first points of the season. They would love to keep the momentum going and score another victory here.

Injuries & Illnesses

There are no reports of injuries from either side.

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

The surface at Visakhapatnam is likely to be moist as there has been some rain here over the past week. The quicker bowlers can expect some help early on in the game, but once the batters settle down, playing shots gets easier. A score of around 270 is a par score here.

The weather forecast for Thursday isn’t very promising, and we can expect some showers throughout the day. That could even lead to a shortened match.

IND-W vs SA-W Team Expert Advice

Since this is the first WODI match that will be played here in over a decade, not much is known as to how it will behave, and we have therefore selected a balanced playing XI. Luckily, there are quite a few all-rounders playing for both teams, and they bring balance to the side. Our bowling unit is well-rounded with an equal number of seamers and slower bowlers.
