In match one of the Tri-series between India, South Africa, and West Indies, South Africa Women will play India Women. On January 19, the match will take place at East London’s Buffalo Park. This tournament will allow the three teams to refine their lineups and adapt to South African conditions prior to the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2023.
All of the games will take place at Buffalo Park in East London. Since August of last year’s Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, this will be South Africa Women’s first WT20I. Dane van Niekerk, a seasoned all-rounder, is not included in the squad for the series because she is still recovering slowly from an ankle injury.
India Women suffered a difficult end to 2022 when they lost a home series 4-1 to Australia Women in December. However, that did not diminish the accomplishments of the Women’s Asia Cup, which they won in October by defeating Sri Lanka Women in the final.

With the Women’s T20 World Cup just three weeks away, both teams will be taking this very seriously. The first game of a tri-nation series is always a big deal. Although South Africa Women have some talented players, they lack the depth and strength necessary to compete with the visitors. We predict that India Women will win this first competitive game despite not performing at their best.
Prediction: Considering the team combination, India is expected to win this match.
In the lone T20I played at this location, India Women defeated South Africa Women by nine wickets. Smriti Mandhana and Mithali Raj both scored fifty runs, indicating that batting conditions appeared favorable. Bowlers who use brand-new balls might get a lot of use out of the surface.
Bat and ball will engage in a fascinating battle on Buffalo Park’s wicket. The weather for the game on Thursday is expected to be cloudy with a moderate breeze.
All of this series’ matches will be broadcast on the Star Sports network. The games can be watched live with English commentary on Star Sports 1 and Star Sports 1 HD. Commentaries in regional languages will be available on the appropriate Star Sports network channels.
