Teams Preview
England Women
After winning the inaugural Women’s T20 world cup in 2009 England Women team has failed to reclaim the title in the last three World cups. However, this time they have got a pretty balanced squad and they are certainly one of the favorites to win 2020 title.
In batting, England is relying heavily on key players- Tammy Beaumont, Danielle Wyatt, and Amy Jones to do the bulk of the scoring. Danielle Wyatt has been in great form lately. In the recently concluded T20 Tri-series, she was the top scorer with 213 runs from 5 T20 games. She would look to carry on the good form. Also, captain Heather Knight is in red-hot form with the bat and ball. She also did impressively well in the recently concluded Tri-nation series.
All-rounder Natalie Sciver also in great form in recent times. She was the second-best English player in the tri-series. Notably, she ranked third in the ICC T20 women all-rounder ranking. She would look contribute with both bat and ball.
In the bowling department, seam bowling seems to be the strongest point for England with Sciver, Brunt, Shrubsole, Davies, and Elwiss in the side. The bowling has a lot of variety and holds a balanced look. One of the favorites going into the tournament, England's balance and depth in the squad is their biggest strength.
Key Players - Natalie Sciver, Danielle Wyatt, Amy Jones
England Women Predicted Playing XI

South Africa Women
South Africa record in the T20 World Cup is not great as in all the earlier six editions of the Women’s T20 World Cup they have failed to make it beyond the semi-final of the tournament in any of those appearances. This time Proteas have named experienced squad and they will be desperate to put some poor efforts behind them in the 2020 version of the tournament.
With some key players back in the side, South Africa possesses a strong look. The all-rounders and power-hitters are the biggest strength for the Proteas. The batting has a formidable look with Van Niekerk, Lee and Du Preez all being in good form, and the depth in batting with Kapp and Tryon might prove to be handy in crunch games. The problem of plenty in the batting department will hold them in good stead.
The destructive Lizelle Lee will be expected to take the attack to the opposition, bringing in the X-factor with the bat. Du Preez and skipper Van Niekerk, with their experience, will be the batting mainstays for the team.
On the bowling front, South Africa has one of the strongest pace attacks in the world at the moment. The dependable Marizanne Kapp and the pacy Shabnim Ismail hold the key for South Africa in the bowling department.
Key Player - Van Niekerk, Lizelle Lee, Marizanne Kapp
