South Africa women vs Australia women prediction for ICC Women’s World Cup 2022
Australia will start as outright favourites on Tuesday given their performances in the ongoing Women’s World Cup 2022. The top-ranked team on ICC’s Women’s ODI team rankings have a superior head-to-head record, are in imperious form and seem well poised to get the better of South Africa without much hassle.
South Africa, on the other hand, have been one of the most impressive teams in the tournament and will be confident of their chances to end their winless run against Australia based on their performances so far. That said, there’s no doubt that South Africa are the underdogs heading into the contest.
