Captain Laura Wolvaardt: Captain Laura Wolvaardt led from the front with a sublime 90, and Marizanne Kapp finished with a blistering unbeaten 68 as South Africa powered to a commanding 312 for 9 in a rain-affected 40-over contest against Pakistan in the Women’s World Cup at the R. Premadasa Stadium here on Tuesday.
In a match marred by multiple rain interruptions, South Africa’s batting unit rose to the occasion, smashing Pakistan’s attack to all parts of the ground and setting up a daunting DLS-adjusted target of 306 runs.
Put in to bat after Pakistan won the toss, South Africa suffered an early blow when Fatima Sana removed Tazmin Brits for a duck in the second over. Before the innings could gather momentum, rain halted play with Sadia Iqbal ready to deliver the third over.
