South Africa Women are set to face off against New Zealand Women in the third T20 International of the five-match series. The first two games in the series were both marred by rain, producing no results. In the series opener, rain played spoilsport from the outset, as the match was abandoned without even a toss taking place.
The second T20I, however, provided a glimmer of hope for cricket enthusiasts. New Zealand managed to post a competitive total of 111/9 in their allotted 20 overs. But once again, rain reared its persistent head, preventing the South African Women from their turn at bat. With the rain refusing to relent, the second innings couldn’t take place, leading to yet another washout.

Buffalo Park Pitch Report:
Buffalo Park has built a reputation for its consistent and stable pitch conditions, offering dependable bounce and movement that prove advantageous for both batsmen and fast bowlers. Furthermore, as the game progresses, spinners tend to play a crucial role. Given the lack of conclusive results in the previous two matches, the optimal strategy would be to opt for batting first and putting runs on the scoreboard.
