The South Africa women began their Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 campaign in impressive fashion, winning their opening match against West Indies by 10 wickets! Openers Laura Wolvaardt and Tazmin Brits each scored half-centuries to chase down the target of 119 runs in just 17.5 overs. However, in their second game, England handed the Proteas a 7-wicket defeat, disrupting their previously solid position. Now placed third in Group B, SA Women will face Scotland Women, who have lost both of their matches—first to Bangladesh by 16 runs and then to West Indies by 6 wickets. Kathryn Bryce’s team sits fifth in the group and will need some miracles to advance. And, here they are fighting for it today at the Dubai International Cricket Ground. Follow the live updates here!

South Africa Vs Scotland Womens’ T20 World Cup Live Score: Pitch Report
WV Raman and Pommie Mbangwa | The temperature is 37 degrees at the moment. Dimensions – 57 and 63 square, 73 metres straight down the ground which looks dry despite the grasses being all green. The batters should play with the turn and use their bottom hand to score well. It is also important for the bowlers to work around and push the fielders in the deep, as the surface is low-bounced, so playing across the line would be risky.
