In a big boost to their preparations ahead of Women’s T20I World Cup, South Africa and Pakistan Women will be locking horns in a T20I series consisting of three games. 

All three matches will be played in Multan from September 16 to 20. This will serve as a great chance for both teams in their preparations ahead of the T20I World Cup. This series is a crucial opportunity for both South Africa and Pakistan to fine-tune their strategies. 

"This T20I series against Pakistan is a critical part of our preparations for the ICC Women's T20 World Cup. It offers the team the invaluable opportunity to gain match practice, allowing us to refine our strategies and ensure that our players are in peak form,” CSA director of cricket Enoch Nkwe said.

“We are incredibly grateful to the PCB for their collaboration and efforts in arranging this series. This series not only helps us prepare for the World Cup but also strengthens the relationship between our two cricket boards as the Proteas Women visit Pakistan for the second time in a year. It's a testament to the shared commitment we have toward growing the women's game."

"Moreover, by playing more international matches, we're providing our players with the platform to showcase their talent and inspire the next generation of cricketers. We look forward to a competitive series that will benefit both teams and further elevate women's cricket on the world stage."

After the series, South Africa will leave for the UAE on September 21 to participate in the T20I World Cup, while Pakistan will leave for UAE on September 23.
