AUS Women Team News & Playing 11
AUS-W Team News
Meg Lanning announced two changes to Australia Women’s team ahead of the semi-final with Alyssa Healy and Jess Jonassen coming back into the team in place of Annabel Sutherland and Alana King. We anticipate that Australia Women will pick the same side for the final.
AUS-W Key Players
- Alyssa Healy- the keeper-batter hit her lowest score of the tournament on Thursday but still contributed 25 runs to the team. She has been in excellent form throughout the competition.
- Meg Lanning- the skipper produced a typically well-paced innings in the semi-final. She finished unbeaten on 49 not out and will be relishing the opportunity to bat on the same pitch.
- Megan Schutt- only Sophie Ecclestone has taken more wickets in the tournament than the experienced Australia pace bowler. She dismissed opener Shafali Verma on Thursday.
AUS-W Team Form
Australia Women have won every game during this campaign although they looked like they were going to lose against India Women with six overs remaining.

SA-W Team News
The hosts named an unchanged XI for their semi-final win over England and, considering it is on the same pitch and with no injuries in the squad, we expect to see the same South Africa team selected for this game. The opening batting pair are in particularly good form.
SA-W Key Players
- Laura Wolvaardt- the 23 year old right handed opener comes into this final in excellent form after hitting 66 not out and 53 at this venue in her last two innings.
- Tazmin Brits- the 32 year old took the Player of the Match Award after top scoring with 68 runs and taking four catches in the semi-final victory.
- Shabnim Ismail- the pace bowler was too quick on this pitch for some of England’s batters on Friday. She turned the game with two wickets in three overs in the sixth over.
SA-W Team Form
Although they have lost two games already in Womens T20 World Cup 2023, South Africa come into this final with three wins from their last four matches.

Who will win Australia vs South Africa Women T20 Match?
One or two of South Africa Women’s top players would certainly challenge for a place in Australia Women’s XI but the rest of the team are a level or so below. Australia Women are one of the most consistent women’s cricket teams ever.
AUS Women vs SA Women Prediction
Australia Women are targeting their sixth Women’s T20 World Cup title from the last seven tournaments and have everything in their squad to win this final. However, South Africa Women showed that they have talent and fight in their semi-final victory and they will not make things easy with bat or ball for the reigning champions. We expect South Africa Women to have some moments when they are on top but overall we expect Australia Women to be too strong and to get the win.
