After starting their campaign with a commanding 10-wicket win over West Indies Women, South Africa were given a big reality check in their very next outing. Batting first, their batters struggled against England’s quality bowling, managing only 124/6 in 20 overs. Although it took England 19.2 overs to chase down the target, they never looked in trouble and won by seven wickets. South Africa cannot afford another loss if they are to remain in contention for a semifinal spot.
Scotland Women are on the brink of elimination, having played two and lost both their games heading into this must-win affair against South Africa. The more concerning aspect is their overall performance. They failed to chase down 120 runs in the opening match against Bangladesh Women and lost their next game by six wickets to West Indies Women after posting a meagre total of 99/8 in 20 overs.
