Bangladesh make three adjustments and choose to bat first

Bangladesh selected to bat vs South Africa

Bangladesh have received the toss and chosen to bat first within the last group-stage match of the 2023 Women’s T20 World Cup, a must-win for South Africa if they’re to make it into the semi-finals.

If the hosts fail to chase efficiently underneath lights at Newlands, New Zealand will advance to Friday’s semi-final towards England, who walloped Pakistan by a file 114 runs within the afternoon recreation after posting 213 for five, the best complete at a Women’s T20 World Cup, after which proscribing their opponents to 99 for 9.
South Africa, in the meantime have introduced in Anneke Bosch and Ayabonga Khaka for Delmi Tucker and Masabata Klaas. They return to the scene of their opening evening defeat by the hands of Sri Lanka, which set again their hopes of reaching the knockout phases. A win towards New Zealand in Paarl adopted by a loss towards Australia in Gqeberha has their hopes delicately poised.

Allrounder Marizanne Kapp informed the host broadcaster: “We probably didn’t rock up on the first night of the World Cup, but lucky it [qualifying] is still within our hands and we know what we have to do. It is not going to be easy but we have to go out fighting tonight. I am a bit disappointed with my performances throughout this World Cup, and hope tonight I can set that straight.”

Bangladesh: Murshida Khatun, Shamima Sultana (wk), Sobhana Mostary, Nigar Sultana Joty (capt), Shorna Akter, Fargana Hoque Pinky, Lata Modal, Nahida Akter, Fahima Khatun, Jahanara Alam, Marufa Akter

South Africa: Laura Wolvaardt, Tazmin Brits, Marizanne Kapp, Sune Luus (capt), Chloe Tryon, Anneke Bosch, Nadine de Klerk, Sinalo Jafta (wk), Shabnim Ismail, Ayabonga Khaka, Nonkulukeko Mlaba
