SA-W vs SL-W Match Prediction

South Africa Women have performed fairly well with the bat in the competition so far, despite losing two games. They are well-balanced in comparison to Sri Lanka Women. The focus will be to work on their bowling in this match.

Sri Lanka Women continue to struggle with their batting. Chamari Athapaththu has failed with the bat and the over-dependency on her is quite clear from their failures as a team.

Sri Lanka Women will have to play out of their skin if they are to beat South Africa in this clash.

Prediction: South Africa Women to win this encounter.
