Bench: Tasmin Brits, Sinola Jafta, Nondumiso Shangase.

Top Picks:

Radha Yadav and Poonam Yadav will be crucial with the ball yet again. The duo picks up at least two wickets each in every T20I, especially on slow tracks. Sune Luus promoted herself as an opener in the last game to solve the team’s batting troubles but didn’t work. However, she could be seen doing the same in the final T20I as well. Mignon du Preez needs to score big for the visitors to win games.

Captain and Vice-Captain Selection:

Captain – Harmanpreet Kaur, Nadine de Klerk, Deepti Sharma, Mignon du Preez

Vice-Captain – Shafali Verma, Lizelle Lee, Sune Luus, Radha Yadav

Harmanpreet Kaur has been brilliant with both bat and ball in this series. She would be hoping to finish the series with another big game.
