India Women (IND W) will play against South Africa Women (SA W) in Match No. 10 of the ICC Women's World Cup 202 on Thursday, October 9, at 3:00 PM IST at the ACA–VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam. The hosts have got off to a fantastic start to their campaign with two wins, sitting comfortably in the top half of the points table. Harmanpreet Kaur's Indian team would like to continue this thrilling run and solidify its potential to qualify for the semi-finals.

South Africa began their tournament with a heavy 10-wicket loss to England but bounced back with a win over New Zealand in Indore. The Laura Wolvaardt-captained side will attempt to carry that confidence forward and turn over the in-form Indian team. Historically, India has the edge over South Africa in ODIs, winning four of five head-to-head encounters, but anything can happen in the World Cup.
