South Africa Women vs Bangladesh Women – 29th Match, Group A

The 29th Match of Group A in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 will see South Africa Women take on Bangladesh Women on Sunday, June 28, at Lord’s, London. The match is scheduled to begin at 10:30 AM local time (9:30 AM GMT / 2:30 AM PT / 5:30 AM ET).

South Africa Women will enter this match as one of the stronger sides on paper. Led by Laura Wolvaardt, they have a balanced squad with experienced batters, powerful all-rounders, and a quality bowling attack. Their team has the ability to control the match in different phases, especially if their top order gets a good start.

South Africa’s batting lineup includes Laura Wolvaardt, Tazmin Brits, Sune Luus, Chloe Tryon, Dane van Niekerk, Sinalo Jafta, Karabo Meso, and Annerie Dercksen. Laura Wolvaardt can provide stability at the top, while Tazmin Brits can play attacking cricket in the powerplay. Chloe Tryon and Dane van Niekerk add experience and power in the middle order.

South Africa also have strong all-round options in Marizanne Kapp, Nadine de Klerk, Sune Luus, Chloe Tryon, Dane van Niekerk, and Annerie Dercksen. Marizanne Kapp’s role will be very important because she can make an impact with both bat and ball. This all-round strength gives South Africa excellent balance in T20 cricket.

The South Africa bowling attack includes Shabnim Ismail, Ayabonga Khaka, Marizanne Kapp, Nonkululeko Mlaba, Tumi Sekhukhune, Nadine de Klerk, and Kayla Reyneke. Shabnim Ismail and Ayabonga Khaka can create pressure with pace and accuracy, while Nonkululeko Mlaba can be dangerous with spin in the middle overs.

Bangladesh Women will be led by Nigar Sultana Joty, who is one of their most dependable batters. Their batting lineup includes Nigar Sultana Joty, Sharmin Akter Supta, Sobhana Mostary, Dilara Akter, Taj Nehar, Juairiya Ferdous, Shorna Akter, and Ritu Moni. Nigar Sultana’s calm batting will be important, while Dilara Akter and Sharmin Akter Supta can help Bangladesh build a strong start.

Bangladesh’s all-round department includes Shorna Akter, Ritu Moni, Fahima Khatun, Rabeya Khan, and Sultana Khatun. These players give Bangladesh useful balance, especially in conditions where spin and smart batting can play a big role. Bangladesh will need contributions from their all-rounders if they want to challenge South Africa.

The Bangladesh bowling attack includes Nahida Akter, Marufa Akter, Rabeya Khan, Fahima Khatun, Fariha Islam Trisna, Shanjida Akther Maghla, and Sultana Khatun. Nahida Akter will be a key spinner in the middle overs, while Marufa Akter can be important with the new ball. Bangladesh’s bowling strength will depend on discipline and early breakthroughs.

The Lord’s pitch in London usually offers good carry for fast bowlers, especially early in the innings. Batters can score well once they adjust to the pace and bounce. Spinners may get assistance in the middle overs if the surface becomes slower. A first-innings score between 150 and 170 can be competitive at this venue.

South Africa Women have a clear advantage in terms of experience, pace bowling, and all-round depth. Bangladesh Women have talented spinners and fighting spirit, but they will need a strong batting performance to put South Africa under pressure. If South Africa’s top order and pace attack perform well, they will be favorites to win this match.

Expert Prediction: South Africa Women have 74% chance and Bangladesh Women have 26% winning chance.
