What Have The Two Teams Done Recently?
South Africa Women
There have been 161 matches that South Africa Women have been a part of in this format and they have won 70 and lost 84 of them.
Since the start of this year, South Africa have a win-loss of 5-6 which includes victories over India, Australia and Sri Lanka, making them a dangerous side on their day.
West Indies Women
Of the 173 matches played by the West Indies Women, they have won 87 and lost 77 of them. A win-loss ratio of 1.12 will be slightly disappointing for a team that has won the Women’s T20 World Cup before.
In 2024, West Indies Women have played just eight games and have a healthy 6-2 win-loss record.

Quick South Africa vs West Indies Women’s T20 World Cup Preview
Other than Australia, who are six-time winners, only two teams have won the Women’s T20 World Cup – England and West Indies. And they have won it just once.
While this is a staggering record for Australia, it also speaks volumes about how highly rated the West Indies Women team were at one point.
Since that title win, however, West Indies have made the semifinal of this tournament just once and never beyond.
On the other hand, South Africa Women, who had traditionally struggled to get going in both bilaterals and T20 World Cups, look to have turned things around for themselves.
They made the semifinals at both, the 2020 and 2023 T20 World Cup and went one better last year by entering the final too.
And this confidence reflects in the way South Africa have played over the past 12 months too, with their 2024 record reading a solid 5-5 with a win over Australia Women in one of those matches too.
All Eyes On
South Africa Women captain Laura Wolvaardt averages 40 with the bat this year in this format, having scored over 400 runs doing so. That she bats at a strike-rate of 133 makes it a rare feat of batters who have that average-SR combo.
Afy Fletcher might be 37 years old but has had an excellent year so far having picked 16 wickets at an average of only 10. Being a leg-spinner she will benefit greatly from these pitches in UAE and that could make things trickier for the opposition batters.
South Africa vs West Indies Head-to-Head Stats
- Overall South Africa vs West Indies Women T20I Head-to-head: There have been 21 games in this format played between these two sides and West Indies Women have a stupendous 14-7 win-loss record against South Africa Women.
- More recently, however, South Africa have won in three of their four meetings.
- Interestingly, West Indies had won their first nine matches against South Africa, played between 2009 and 2013. Things have evened out a tad since 2016.
