South Africa women's cricket team will begin their highly-anticipated multi-format tour of India on Sunday, June 15. India will host the first of three ODI matches at Bengaluru's M Chinnaswamy Stadium as both teams kick off their early preparations for the next ICC ODI World Cup in 2025.
Harmanpreet Kaur-led India look to rise from their 0-3 ODI series loss against Australia earlier this year. India defeated Bangladesh 5-0 in their last T20Is in April-May but will be facing a totally different challenge against South Africa in ODIs. India have won just once in their last five ODI encounters against South Africa, including a last-ball loss while defending 274 runs in the last meeting in March 2022.
The Proteas Women are facing a difficult challenge in securing an automatic qualification for next year's World Cup in India. They drew against Sri Lanka in their last ODI assignment in April and will begin a new era after head coach Hilton Moreeng's resignation last month.
