The Women’s T20 World Cup final sees South Africa women take on New Zealand women. Both sides will face off in the clash for glory at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday, October 20. Both sides have put in some excellent performances throughout the competition to reach the summit clash.

The clash began with some good news for South Africa women as the side won the toss. Electing to bowl first was a decision that raised quite a few eyebrows from the spectators. It is worth noting that on the pitch in Dubai, the wicket tends to slow down, but it seems like South Africa is backing their chasing skills.

Interestingly, both teams have all of their players available and will be going into the final with an unchanged lineup as compared to their semi-final wins. Both sides will be looking to put in good showings and get their hands on the title.
