The squad includes several new faces as they look to build depth.
The Proteas women’s cricket team is set to embark on a historic first-ever T20 series against Zimbabwe, marking their debut in a senior international match against a fellow African nation. The five-match series will be held in Bulawayo from September 11 to 19, with captain Laura Wolvaardt expressing excitement about the opportunity to face their neighbors.
The squad includes experienced players such as Wolvaardt, Annerie Dercksen, Karabo Meso, and Kayla Reyneke, as well as younger talents like Miané Smit, Faye Tunnicliffe, and four uncapped players. Head coach Mandla Mashimbyi sees the series as an ideal platform to assess the potential of the next generation of South African cricketers.
