RSA-W 14/0 (2 Overs)
Pitch number 4 to be used today, a high of 36 degree celsius, 73m straight hit, 59m and 63 square boundaries, that's something to take care about. A lot of spin has been bowled by the spinners at th🦹is venue. We're looking at a margin of 3-3.5m, batters 💖who can use their feet well would do. There are some bare patches, a par score of around 130-140 would be a good score.
England Women (Playing XI): Maia Bouchier, Danielle Wyat🐬t-Ho🥂dge, Nat Sciver-Brunt, Heather Knight(c), Alice Capsey, Amy Jones(w), Danielle Gibson, Charlotte Dean, Sophie Ecclestone, Sarah Glenn, Linsey Smith
South Africa Women&nbs𒅌p;(Playing XI): Laura Wolvaardt(c), Tazmin Brits, Marizanne Kapp, Anneke Bosch, Sune Luus, Chloe Tryon, Nadine de Klerk, Annerie Dercksen, Sinalo Jafta(w), Nonkululeko Mlaba, Ayabonga Khaka
Laura Wolvaardt has won the toss and🍸ꦰ opted to bat first at Sharjah.
England batter Danni-Wyatt-Hodge: "I thought it was a pretty dominant performance by everyone (in w๊in over Bangladesh). With the bat I thought we adapted quite early which was good. Communication was really good out there and then with the ball I thought the girls did a fantastic job...I thought our fielding was outstanding as well. We really attacked the ball as well and pulled off some good run-outs and catch▨es. Hopefully we can kick on, learn from tonight and put out another good display in the next game."
South Africa bowler Nonkululeko Mlaba: "I think for us now we’re in it to win it. I mean we failed (in the) semi-finalsไ a couple🐻 of times, and we failed at the finals. And now, it's either we win it or not. So that's the mentality of the team now. We're just in it to win it."
