India Women vs South Africa Women 2nd ODI preview

The Indian Women's team's long hiatus from cricket - both domestic and international - became quite apparent after their massive 8-wicket loss to the South Africa Women. Playing their first bilateral series since the ICC Women's T20 World Cup in March 2020, the Indian Women put up a great fight but came up fairly short as they tried to get this series off to a good start. Batting first, the Indian top-order fell cheaply. Mithali Raj and Harmanpreet Kaur made 50 and 40 respectively to anchor the Indian innings but were let down as all but Deepti Sharma failed to put up more than 20 runs. 

Chasing 177, South Africa needed just 40.1 overs to take the 1-0 lead in the 5-match series. Youngsters Lizelle Lee and Laura Wolvaardt put up brilliant scores of 83* and 80 respectively as the visitors took control of the series. Jhulan Goswami proved to be the best bowler for India as she picked up two wickets. The Indian Women will hope to balance out the series in this match while the Proteas will hope to keep up their winning white-ball streak.
