The three night games will be played in the main stadium, and the two day games will be held at the outer venue. The night games will start at 6.30pm local time and day games at 2pm.
With their back to back victories over Proteas women in last two T20I matches by 7 wickets and 9 wickets, respectively, Harmanpreet Kaur’s squad will look to continue its momentum in the third T20I against South Africa at the New Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg, on Sunday.
Star player Mithali Raj had joined the elite club of cricketers who have scored four consecutive fifties in the T20Is. And if today again she scores 50 runs, then she will become the first player ever in both male and female cricket to do so.
In the ongoing 5-match T20 International series, Indian women cricket team leads 2-0.
