    WT20I Series: Bowling Coach Salvi Remains Optimistic Of Women's Team Making A Comeback In Third Match

    South Africa Women: India Women’s bowling coach Aavishkar Salvi admitted that execution, not planning, cost the team in the first two T20Is against South Africa Women's cricket team, but backed the side to “bounce back stronger” in the must-win third game.

    South Africa leads the series 2-0, having won the first two games by six and eight wickets. Another victory would secure the series for them, forcing India to play for pride in the remaining matches. The hosts have been in full control, executing their game plans well with both bat and ball, while exposing India's inconsistency, especially in the middle order.

    In the first T20I, India showed some fight, coming close to winning, thanks mostly to an unbeaten 47 from captain Harmanpreet Kaur. However, Laura Wolvaardt (51) and Annerie Dercksen (44*) helped South Africa secure the win in the final over. The second game was much less competitive, with India only managing 147 runs despite a quick 57 from Shafali Verma. The total was not enough, as the hosts chased it down comfortably, thanks to half-centuries from Wolvaardt (54) and Sune Luus (57), along with strong bowling performances from Chloe Tryon and Tumi Sekhukhune.
