SA-W vs IND-W Team Previews

South Africa Women

South Africa Women will be desperate to arrest a worrying slide when they face India again in the ongoing ODI tri-series in Sri Lanka. With just one win in their last 14 matches across formats, including eight consecutive white-ball defeats before the current tour, the pressure is mounting on Laura Wolvaardt’s side. Their campaign under new coach Mandla Mashimbyi has begun on a bleak note, with losses to both India and Sri Lanka already in the bag.

Despite a promising start under Mashimbyi with a win against England in Kimberley, South Africa have since slumped to five successive defeats. Their latest loss – a five-wicket defeat to Sri Lanka – exposed familiar failings with the bat and in the field, compounded by missed opportunities and inconsistent partnerships. Annerie Dercksen’s unbeaten 61 was the lone bright spark in a modest total of 235, while the bowlers failed to contain a well-measured Lankan chase.

Injuries and the harsh Sri Lankan climate haven't helped, but Mashimbyi insists there are no excuses. As they prepare for a second showdown with India on Wednesday, South Africa know time is running out to turn promise into performance ahead of the World Cup later this year.

India Women

India Women will look to bounce back with purpose when they face South Africa in their next ODI of the tri-series in Sri Lanka, after suffering a narrow three-wicket defeat to the hosts in Colombo. Despite posting a strong total of 275/9, powered by Richa Ghosh’s fluent 58 and valuable contributions from across the batting order, India were left stunned as Sri Lanka pulled off a thrilling chase with five balls to spare.

The loss, only Sri Lanka’s third-ever ODI win over India, came despite periods of control from the visitors. Pranika Rawal impressed in a top-order role, while Jemimah Rodrigues, Harleen Deol and Harmanpreet Kaur all kept the innings ticking. Ghosh looked poised to take India past 300 before her 44th-over dismissal halted the momentum, a moment the captain later admitted was decisive.

With the ball, Sneh Rana’s 3/45 helped India claw back after a strong Lankan start, but the death overs lacked composure as the hosts' lower order sealed the chase.

As they prepare to face a struggling South African side, India will be eager to tighten up their finishing and sharpen their bowling execution — especially with the World Cup looming later this year.

SA-W vs IND-W Toss Prediction

The team that wins the toss is likely to want to bat first and get a score on the board. That is generally what teams prefer doing in the ODI format when it comes to the Women's ODI's.

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

The R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo is expected to offer a typical subcontinental surface for the clash between South Africa Women and India Women on May 7. The pitch has shown signs of slowing down as the tri-series progresses, with run-making becoming slightly more challenging in the second half of the innings. Spinners are likely to play a key role, especially as the ball grips and turns under lights. Batting first could be advantageous, provided teams post a competitive total around the 250-270 mark.

Weather conditions on match day are expected to be hot and humid, with temperatures hovering around 32°C and humidity levels above 75%. There’s a moderate chance of brief showers in the late afternoon or evening, typical for Colombo this time of year, which could lead to interruptions or damp outfield conditions. Captains will keep a close eye on the radar, with the possibility of the DLS method coming into play.

SA-W vs IND-W: Who Will Win?

South Africa Women will be under immense pressure and are on the verge of being knocked out. This is not ideal in the lead-up to the World Cup. We have also seen how South Africa Women have had a sustained run of failures for quite some time now. India Women should be able to use this situation to their advantage and end up winning this contest.

SA-W vs IND-W win percentage stands at 76% in favor of IND-W.
