A mouth-watering clash awaits as Heather Knight's England are ready to clash against South Africa. Both teams enter Match 9 of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 with a win on their back.
The Three Lions were involved in a slightly tight game against Bangladesh last week. England women were restricted to 118/7. However, some wise bowling saw them clinch the game by 21 runs as they stopped Bangladesh at just 97. South Africa, meanwhile, demolished the West Indies in their tournament-opener by 10 wickets. Skipper Laura Wolvaardt and Tazmin Brits stitched an unbeaten 119-run stand.
