South Africa will look to stay alive in the Tri-Nation ODI Series 2025 when they take on table-toppers India in a do-or-die clash at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Wednesday, May 7.
India started their campaign with a nine-wicket win in a rain-curtailed clash against Sri Lanka last month. In their following encounter against South Africa, the Women in Blue registered a 15-run win in what turned out to be a thrilling affair. Sri Lanka managed to stop India’s unbeaten run when they defeated Harmanpreet Kaur and Co. by three wickets on Sunday (May 4).
Meanwhile, South Africa have only played two games so far. After their defeat to India, the Laura Wolvaardt-led side lost to Sri Lanka by five wickets last week. A loss on Wednesday will make South Africa’s clash against Sri Lanka on Friday a dead rubber.
Pitch Report
The R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo has provided some balanced surfaces in the tournament so far. Batters who have shown a willingness to spend time in the middle have been able to score runs. Spinners have found help, especially in the second innings. The captain who wins the toss should look to bat first.

Probable Best Batter: Pratika Rawal
The young Indian opener,ย Pratika Rawal, has been in fine form in the tournament so far. After scoring half-centuries in the first two games, she was dismissed for a 39-ball 35 against Sri Lanka on Sunday. The 24-year-old is the leading run-getter in the tournament, with 163 runs from three games at an average of 81.50.
The experienced Sneh Rana is the leading wicket-taker in the tournament by a distance. She has picked up 11 wickets from three games at an average of 10.82. Her consistency in lines and lengths and subtle variations of speed have flummoxed opposition batters.
