Eng W vs SA W, Women’s T20 World Cup Semifinal Live Score: Pitch Report

 

If the last semi-final's pitch is anything to go by, the Newlands has dried up a bit, and if bowled slowly and in the right areas, it takes work to hit the ball hard. However, if the batters apply themselves well enough, they too can get runs in their kitty, as Meg Lanning, Beth Mooney and Harmanpreet Kaur showed in the first semi-final.

Eng W vs SA W, Women’s T20 World Cup Semifinal Live Score: Big game today

 

In the tournament's first game, South Africa was surprised as Sri Lanka beat them by five runs. However, they fought back and have made it to the semis courtesy of a better net run rate than both Sri Lanka and New Zealand. Luck is on their side, and hence the Sune Luus-led side could pull up a surprise against the hot favourites England.

 

After Australia went past India in what was a deja vu of the 2017 ODI World Cup final for the women in blue, the Women's T20 World Cup has only two more matches to go before the champions are announced. Australia, who have won five of the previous seven editions, await the winner of the second semi-final between hosts South Africa and mighty England.

 

The match would take place at the same venue of Newlands where the first semi-final was played. This one would be on the same pitch too.
