In the first T20I, SA scored 183 runs for the loss of 6 wickets. ODI seriesβ leading run scorer Tanzim Brits scored an unbeaten 98 runs off just 63 balls. Jahzara Claxton picked up three wickets for the WI Women.

Despite the shaky start, they managed 44 for 2 at the end of the powerplay. But from there, Tazmin Brits and Nadine de Klerk shifted gears. The duo stitched together a quickfire 71-run stand for the third wicket in just over six overs, with Brits doing most of the damage, smashing 42 of those runs in an aggressive counterattack.
