Info:
Heather Knight scored 63 runs from 49 balls in the final ODI and she is our pick for England Women’s highest run scorer in this game.
Kate Cross has taken 94 international wickets and she is our tip for England Women’s top wicket taker in this first WT20I.
Laura Wolvaardt scored half-centuries in both of the final two WODIs. She is well worth backing as South Africa Women’s highest run scorer against England Women.

ENG-W Team News:
England Women ended the WODI series with successive big wins over South Africa Women and they will come into this series full of confidence. The squad will be slightly different from the ODIs, with Tammy Beaumont, Lauren Bell, Alice Davidson-Richards, Charlie Dean and Emma Lamb giving way to Maia Bouchier, Alice Capsey, Freya Davies, Sarah Glenn, Freya Kemp and Bryony Smith. England Women have not played a game in this format since losing to Australia Women by 9 wickets at the Adelaide Oval in January. However, the team has undergone many changes since that match and there will be a fresh look to the XI.
SA-W Team News:
South Africa Women need to find a way to kick start their tour after seven games without a win and there were few signs in the final WODIs that this could happen. They lost in Bristol by 114 runs and Leicester by 109 runs and they will welcome a new format to test themselves against England Women. Some of their most consistent players continue to perform well across all formats but it is the additional players in the XI who are proving to be not quite up to the level required. Chloe Tryon top scored for South Africa Women in the ODI series with Nadine de Klerk topping their wicket list.

Winning Chances:
Who will win today’s match: ENG-W vs SA-W | Women ODI Match 3
Although we expect this game to be much closer than the last two WODIs, we do predict that England Women will be too strong. The hosts are going through a period of giving opportunities to younger players but they are coming into a successful unit. We expect South Africa Women to put in a stronger performance but England Women to win

England Women are favorites to beat South Africa Women.
