Women's T20 World Cup 2024: Match 11, Scotland-W vs South Africa-W Match Prediction – Who will win today’s match between SCO-W vs SA-W?

Scotland Women (SCO-W) will lock horns with South Africa Women (SA-W) in Match No. 11 of the ongoing Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai on October 9.

The Kathryn Bryce-led side has had a disappointing campaign so far, as they have still not managed to secure their first win and are languishing at the bottom of the table. In both the games played so far, the Scottish side struggled to get things going. Losing the first two games has slimmed their chances of qualifying for the next stage. In the upcoming game, the side needs to come up with something new to bag those two crucial points. 

On the other hand, Proteas women have had a start-stop journey so far. In their opening game against West Indies Women, the side came on top and won the game comfortably by 10 wickets. But in their last game against England Women, the side suffered a seven-wicket defeat which has placed them in the third position on the points table. The upcoming game will be crucial for them to make their qualification to the next stage smoother.
