The action is slated to commence from 5:30 PM IST onwards at Buffalo Park in East London.
Ahead of this game, here is a look at the Dream11 predictions, the fantasy cricket tips, the pitch report and the best predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match.
SA-W vs EN-W 1st T20I Preview
South Africa Women recently secured runners-up finish at the 2024 T20 World Cup in the UAE. They won three of their four Group B games, with their only defeat coming against England. In a bid to topple England at home, in-form Proteas batters Laura Wolvaardt and Tazmin Brits will be expected to sustain their prolific run-scoring spree. Nonkululeko Mlaba, who picked up wickets in a cluster at the T20 World Cup, will likely helm the bowling attack for the hosts.
England Women, under the leadership of Heather Knight, failed to qualify for the T20 World Cup 2024 semifinal despite winning three of their four matches. However, they managed to upstage South Africa in the tournament, and hold an exceptional one-sided head-to-head track record in overall T20Is against them. Danni Wyatt-Hodge and Nat Sciver-Brunt have emerged as some of their prolific run-makers, while Sophie Ecclestone has snapped the highest number of wickets among all English bowlers in T20Is off late.
