Feb.4 (CRICKETNMORE) - South Africa and India will launch their bids to qualify directly for the ICC Women’s World Cup 2021 when they square-off against each other in a first round fixture of the ICC Women’s Championship next week with memories of the ICC Women’s World Cup 2017 still fresh in their minds.
Kimberley will be the venue of the 5 and 7 February ODIs, while the series will finish with the final match in Potchefstroom on 10 February. At the backend of the ODI series, the two sides will play five T20Is, which will not count towards the ICC Women’s Championship, but will have an impact on the ICC Women’s Team Rankings on which India is presently ranked fourth and South Africa sixth.
