Players to watch out:

Yasmeen Khan

The 25-year-old opening batter, from 71 T20I innings, has amassed 1,312 runs, with the highest score of 78*, and has also taken 9 wickets from as many bowling innings, maintaining an economy rate of 4.65. In this series, Yasmeen has managed starts of 10, 5, and 20, and will be backed to capitalize on these starts by registering a big score, while also chipping in with the ball.

Victoria Hamunyela

The 21-year-old off-spinner, averaging 13.78 and maintaining an economy rate of 4.45, has claimed 50 wickets from 45 T20I innings, with the best of 4/8. Following a successful campaign earlier this year, Victoria, in her only game in this series thus far, returned figures of 0/16 (1). She is a seasoned campaigner and hopefully will find her rhythm.

Chipo Mugeri-Tiripano

The 32-year-old batter, from 48 T20I innings, has posted 990 runs at a strike rate of 108.07, with the highest score of 80. Chipo hasn’t found much success of late, even in the recently concluded domestic tournament where she was only among starts. Although she departed for a duck in this series opener, she managed a start in her recent outing and will look to follow it up with a big score.

Beloved Biza

The 15-year-old all-rounder, in a recently concluded domestic T20 tournament, accumulated 383 runs from 10 outings at an average of 54.71, while also scalping 5 wickets, maintaining an economy rate of 6.64. Carrying the momentum into this series, Beloved has produced figures of 3/9 and 2/9, while adding 19 runs to the tally. She can be banked upon for all-round efforts.

Pitch:

The Wanderers Cricket Ground provides a well-balanced playing surface, slightly favoring the bowlers. Despite being good for batting, the average score in the 120s suggests that bowlers, particularly pacers, can expect some assistance from the pitch.

Weather:

Windhoek promises ideal conditions for a complete game of cricket with clear overhead skies. The temperature is expected to hover around 25°C, with moderate winds and a humidity level of 11%.
