IN-W vs SA-W Dream11 prediction: Match preview

After being cut-off from the sport for almost a year, the Indian Women returned to International cricket with a 5-ODI and 3-T20I series at home. The hosts put up a decent 177 total but were let down by their bowling as South Africa put up a successful chase in just 40.1 overs. Mithali Raj, Harmanpreet Kaur and Jhulan Goswami were the standouts for India while Lizelle Lee, Laura Wolvaardt, Shabnim Ismail and Nonkululeko Mlaba steered the visitors to a win. India were quick to bounce back, however, as they levelled the series by winning the 2nd ODI by 9 wickets.

Veteran Indian bowler Jhulan Goswami and Rajeswari Gayakwad took 4-42 and 3-37 respectively as the South African Women fell for a below-par 157. Lara Goodall (49) and Sune Luus (36) were the standouts for the visitors as their batting lineup collapsed at the hands of the Indian bowlers. In the Indian innings, Jemimah Rodrigues' poor run of form continued as she was dismissed for just 9 runs off 20 balls. However, Smriti Mandhana and Punam Raut's partnership of 138 helped take India across the finish line and will give them the momentum going into the 3rd ODI.
