Women's T20 WC: South Africa, New Zealand Eye Maiden Title In Historic Final
Dubai International Cricket Stadium: The South Africa Women will take on New Zealand in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 final on Sunday evening at the Dubai International Stadium in the United Arab Emirates, with both teams vying for their first-ever World Cup title in the short format.
South Africa go into the final having alternated between wins and losses in their last four T20 International clashes against New Zealand, but they hold the upper hand, winning their most recent contest by 11 runs in October last year. Furthermore, the Proteas Women have enjoyed significant success in recent ICC Women's T20 World Cup encounters with the White Ferns, winning two of their last three meetings, including a commanding 65-run victory in Paarl during last year’s tournament held on home soil.
The Proteas will be playing in their second consecutive ICC Women's T20 World Cup final, joining the ranks of Australia, New Zealand, and England as teams that have reached back-to-back finals. In the semifinal against the Aussies, South Africa's Anneke Bosch was the star with the bat, scoring an unbeaten 74 at a strike rate of 154.2, an innings that ranks among the best in the history of knockout matches in the competition.
