With a century from an opener in each of the matches so far in the series, South Africa Women have impressed with the bat throughout this series. Skipper Laura Wolvaardt and the experienced Marizanne Kapp will be the key wickets in this WODI.

SL-W Team News
There were two changes for Sri Lanka Women ahead of the second WODI of the series with Hansima Karunaratne and Kawya Kavindi both coming into the side. Sri Lanka Women proved to be competitive with the bat and they will have taken plenty of positives from the last game.
SL-W Team Batting
Sri Lanka Women posted 229 all out in the last match with their innings lasting all but one of their allocated 50 overs. The middle order trio of Hansima Karunaratne, Kavisha Dilhari and Nilakshika Silva all made scores between 33 and 42 and if either of them can push on for a big score in this WODI then the team will be even more competitive.
SL-W Team Bowling
There was a wicket each for Achini Kulasuriya, Oshadi Ranasinghe and Inoka Ranaweera at the Diamond Oval, Kimberley in the last game but of more concern to skipper Chamari Athapaththu will be the lack of maiden overs. Sri Lanka Women may need to take more risks to target more wickets in this match.
SL-W Team Form
Sri Lanka Women come into this WODI with three defeats and two no-results from their last five in the format.
