ENG-W vs SA-W, Women's T20 World Cup 2023 Semifinal 2 Toss Update: Today match players list, teams & umpires 

England meet South Africa in the second semifinal of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2023 at Newlands in Cape Town on Friday (February 24). The winner of the game will take on Australia in the final two days later. The Aussies staved off a tough challenge from India in the first semifinal to advance to the summit clash.

England go into Friday’s knockout game as the favourites. They're unbeaten in the tournament and topped Group B quite comfortably. After commencing their T20 World Cup campaign with an emphatic seven-wicket win over West Indies, England sneaked in a four-wicket win over Ireland. India gave them a tough time, but Heather Knight and co. overcame the challenge. In their last group game, they thumped Pakistan by 114 runs.

In contrast, South Africa began with an unexpected three-run loss to Sri Lanka. A 65-run win over New Zealand was followed by a six-wicket hammering at the hands of Australia. A dominant ten-wicket triumph over Bangladesh confirmed a semi-final berth for them. The hosts will have to play out of their skins to get past England.
