Match 3 of the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 will be done on October 4 at Dubai International Cricket Stadium between South Africa Women (SA-W) and West Indies Women (WI-W). After two victories in their last five international T20s – one of which was not completed – the Proteas are looking to continue growing their winning momentum.
It is a good thing that the West Indies team, which was the winner in 2019, poses a great danger to them. The West Indies do boast of impressive T20I records having won three out of their last five games. They visited Sri Lanka of late and managed to win the T20 International series 2-1 after unsuccessfully contesting the ODI series 3-0.
Both teams are eager to start off on a high note, so expect this to be a very competitive match-up. The prowess and T20 experience that the West Indies possess will seek to challenge the previous successes of South Africa. As they fight for hope for early tournament shift, a few players from both teams will take the center stage.
SA-W vs WI-W head-to-head record:
The two teams have a long history, having played each other 22 times in T20Is. South African women have dominated the competition, claiming 14 victories.
West Indies women have won seven games, with one match ending in a draw. This head-to-head record sets the stage for an exciting match between the two teams, with South Africa wanting to increase their lead and the West Indies looking to close the gap.
Who will win the match?
The forthcoming encounter of South Africa Women vs. West Indies Women is sure to bring fierce competition and excitement. South African women seem to have a little upper hand owing to their head to head record and current form.
However, do not forget the talent and experience of West Indies women in the twenty twenty format. The 2016 champions can spring a surprise against south africa. Ultimately, a host of things such as strategies employed by the teams, performance of players, as well as the ability to adapt to the weather in Dubai, will influence the results of the game.
