The opening game of the three-match T20I series between India Women and South Africa Women will take place in Chennai on Friday. India Women are the early favorites in this series; they won the one-off Test in Chennai and the ODI series against South Africa Women, winning 3-0. While the South African women have lost three of their past five T20I matches, the Indian women have been playing well and have won their last five.
India Women look for winning start
The Indian team has a potent batting lineup that is led by Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana. Renuka Singh and Deepti Sharma, two of their bowlers, are capable of breaking any batting order. The team’s dependence on a small number of important players may pose a risk despite their advantages. There may be pressure on the middle and lower orders to perform if the top order collapses.
