With three consecutive wins and a fourth on cards, South Africa Women will look to deploy whatever measures necessary to dominate the Windies Women and stay atop the points tally in Group B rankings. They would be coming into the game on the back of a 17-run victory over Pakistan Women which paved way for them into the knockouts. The likes of Lizelle Lee, Marizanne Kapp, Laura Wolvaaridt and Shabnim Ismail have put up commendable exhibitions in the last three matches and would carry the onus of putting up a winning show in the forthcoming game as well.
Meanwhile, Windies Women have been clearly knocked out from the race to playoffs. Although they started their T20 World Cup campaign with a win over Thailand Women, they couldn’t keep the momentum for the matches that followed. The recent loss against England Women sealed their chances of making it to the top two of Group B rankings and thus, the Stafanie Taylor-captained side would now be competing for a compensatory win at Sydney Showground Stadium.

Hayley Matthews and Deandra Dotting need to play an aggressive role in order to score the bulk of runs in the powerplays. With skipper Stafanie Taylor at the top-order, one can expect a scoreline close to 60-70 in the first few overs if the trio goes berserk from the very moment. Stefanie's bowling prowess can put a halt to opposition’s scoring ability that makes her a key player to watch out for in the coming encounter. Britney Cooper and Lee-Ann Kirby were building up a partnership in the previous match against England Women and would look to resort to a similar form of play in Sydney.
Bowling wise, right-arm medium Shakira Selman will spearhead the attack for the Windies as was the case in the recently concluded contest. While she will be expected to get breakthroughs in the initial spell, spinners Afy Fletcher and Anisa Mohammed will be backed to affect the dismissals with their doosras and off-breaks.

Lizelle Lee had scored a century few matches in the match against Thailand and would be hoping to put up a similar style of play in the forthcoming duel. Marizanne Kapp and skipper Dane van Niekerk are among the vital cogs in the Protea’s batting lineup and with Lee at the top, the trio will be looking to take on the Windies’ bowling attack by maximizing on the boundary hitting in the powerplays.
Batting at No 4, Mignon du Preez scored an unbeaten 53 off 36 deliveries comprising 8 fours against Pakistan Women and with her performing consistently in the matches competed in the tournament, it wouldn’t be a surprise if she delivers a mind-boggling innings in the much-awaited game at Sydney.
Bowling wise, pacer Ayabonga Khaka can pose a threat with her cutters and pace variations. Nonkululeko Mlaba (1/20) and Sune Luus (0/20) scalped economical figures with their spin potency and will be looking to turn the match in Protea’s favor.

Heavy rain outpour is being predicted in the first half with few showers at the latter stages as well. The temperature would be around 21 degrees Celsius. The match could also be called off or abandoned in between if the rains continue.
The wicket at Sydney Showground Stadium has usually offered aid to the batters, however, in the conditions would be pretty damp in the coming contest and thus, one can anticipate the bowlers to take charge. Any scoreline of 110-120 could be a defendable score on this wicket.
The toss winning team should look to bowl first on this occasion. There is a strong chance for the DLS method to come into play which will provide a revised total for the team batting second. The conditions are ideal for the bowlers to dominate the batter throughout.
Be it batting, bowling or fielding, South Africa Women look far competent than Windies Women for the upcoming match. They have been on a winning spree in the ongoing edition of the T20 World Cup and would be hoping to end their league stage with a victory to their name. West Indies Women have been pretty dismal as a unit and clearly lack the firepower in their lineup that can get the better of an in-form South Africa Women.
