Preview

South Africa Women (SA-W) and Sri Lanka Women (SL-W) are set to lock horns in the first of the three-match ODI series at Buffalo Park, East London on Tuesday, April 9. Having lost the T20 series 2-1, South Africa now aims to take revenge in the 50-over format. Meanwhile, the visitors, high on confidence after a historic series win in the shortest format, will aim to leave the rainbow nation on a high. 

The hosts won the first T20I by 79 runs, but Sri Lanka bounced back with wins of six wickets and four wickets in the remaining matches. The Proteas opener Laura Wolvaardt, who finished as the leading run-scorer of the series (158), was adjudged as Player of the Match. Sri Lanka star all-rounder Chamari Athapaththu was honoured with the Player of the Match in the series decider for scoring 73 off 46 while chasing a target of 156. 

Looking at history, the Wolvaardt-led South Africa are likely to win the first ODI. SL-W have won only two matches out of 20 meetings against South Africa. However, the Asian side have staged a remarkable performance in the recently concluded T20I series, hence can't rule them out as favourites. Let's take a look at probable XIs, pitch report, top picks, fantasy teams and many more.

Injury and availability news

South Africa's Chloe Tryon has been ruled out of the ODI series due to back pain.

Pitch Report

The pitch at Buffalo Park in East London is favourable for batters. The surface has nothing much to offer for the pace bowlers but spinners will get some assistance in the middle overs. The venue has only hosted five women's ODIs so far, all of which were won by the teams who batted first.

Marizanne Kapp SA-W | ALL

One of the finest all-rounders South Africa has ever produced, Kapp finished as the highest run-scorer (112) in the T20I series and grabbed two wickets. She was impressive on the tour of Australia where she made 125 runs and picked up 4 wickets in 3 ODIs.

Tazmin Brits

SA-W | BAT

Tazmin Brits struggled to find runs in the T20I series. The Proteas opener scored just 29 runs across three matches and looks like she is going through a rough patch.

Inoka Ranaweera

SL-W | BOWL

Inoka Ranaweera conceded an economy of 9.8 and 12.5, respectively, in the first two T20Is. Considering the left-arm spinner's current form, it is not a wise decision to pick him in your fantasy teams.
