India Women set for a high-stakes with South Africa

Visakhapatnam, Oct 8 (UNI) Cricket lovers are in for a treat tomorrow as India Women take on South Africa Women in a pivotal ICC Women’s World Cup clash at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium.
The game starts at 3 pm, and by the look of it, the drama will unfold long before the first ball is bowled.
India’s hopes rest heavily on Smriti Mandhana, a batswoman who plays with an elegance that few can match. Averaging 54 against South Africa in ODIs, with three centuries and five half-centuries, Mandhana is not just in form—she is in command.
