Fantasy Cricket Tips for India Women vs South Africa Women 5th ODI

The fifth and final ODI between South Africa Women and India Women will take place at the Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Stadium in Lucknow on Wednesday.

South Africa Women have already sealed a series win on the back of Lizelle Lee's sensational run of form with the bat. Although the Indians ran them close in the previous game, South Africa chased down 266 with eight balls spare. The visitors would love to finish with another win, with the likes of Laura Wolvaardt and Marizanne Kapp also showing glimpses of what they are capable of in the 50-over format.

For India Women, only pride is at stake with the series already lost. Despite fielding an inexperienced bowling attack, India have done well to compete with a strong South Africa team. However, they have often come up short in crucial phases, something India Women will want to fix ahead of the T20I series.

With some of the best players in the world taking the field in Lucknow, we should be in for an entertaining game of cricket on Wednesday.

Pitch Report

South Africa Women chased down 266 in the previous game at the venue. Although a similar surface is expected for Wednesday's match, there should be more help on offer for the pacers. As the game progresses, the spinners should also come into play, drying up the runs in the middle overs. Both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss, with the pitch unlikely to change much during the game.
