Analysis
India Women have lost the series and can only look forward to a consolation victory in the third T20I. After losing 1-4 in the ODI series, India’s woes continued as they failed to turn things around in the T20I series. Indian team stand-in captain Smriti Mandhana said it was a bitter pill to swallow post their defeat in the second match. She said this because India were in a strong position after the first innings but lackluster fielding in the second innings costed India the game. Young 17-year-old Shafali Verma scored 47 off just 31 deliveries and is a must-pick.
South Africa Women have been in tremendous form. They have pocketed the series and will be looking forward to continue their winning momentum. Lizelle Lee yet again scored a half-century and piled up 70 runs. Her innings was laced with 11 fours and 1 six. Laura Wolvaardt too scored 53 runs and bagged the Player of the Match award.
