Preview: Scotland Women (SCO-W) will face South Africa Women (SA-W) in Match 11 of the current Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 on October 9 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai.
The Kathryn Bryce-led team has had a poor season thus far, as they have yet to win a game and are currently ranked last in the table. The Scottish team struggled to get started in both of their previous games. Losing the first two games has reduced their prospects of progressing to the next stage. To secure those two critical points in the upcoming game, the team must devise a fresh strategy.Proteas women, on the other hand, have had a stop-and-start trip thus far. In their first encounter against the West Indies Women, the team came out on top, winning comfortably by 10 wickets. However, in their most recent game against England Women, the team lost by seven wickets, dropping them to third place in the points table. The forthcoming game will be critical for them to make their progression to the next stage easier.
