In the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024, England secured their second consecutive victory by defeating South Africa by seven wickets at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. South Africa, after winning the toss, batted first but struggled to reach 124-6, with skipper Laura Wolvaardt scoring 42 runs before a collapse in the final overs triggered by Sophie Ecclestone's bowling figures of 2-15. In reply, England faced early challenges but stabilized through partnerships, with Danni Wyatt-Hodge contributing 43 runs and Nat Sciver-Brunt finishing the match unbeaten on 48 runs. Sciver-Brunt's performance, along with Wyatt-Hodge's efforts, helped England chase down the target with four balls to spare, placing them at the top of Group B. The match showcased England's strong spin attack and batting depth, as they improved their Net Run Rate significantly. England's next challenge will be against Australia on Tuesday.
