Seeking their second series win on South African soil, India Women begin their five-match T20I campaign on Friday as they travel to Durban, where Dafabet sponsored South Africa will be waiting — fired up and playing in front of their home fans.
South Africa have had some really strong performances at home in recent years. India, though, have had the better of this rivalry overall, winning 10 of the 19 matches the two sides have played against each other.
The last time these teams met in this format was back in 2024 in Chennai, where they had shared a three-match series 1-1 after one game had been abandoned due to weather.
South Africa will have a point to prove this time around, especially with the Women’s T20 World Cup sitting just weeks away on the horizon.
Both teams are drawn into the same group for that tournament, which is scheduled for England and Wales in June and July. Every match in this series has extra meaning because of that, and South Africa will know a home series win would carry serious weight going into the World Cup.
