These two sides are at the top of the points table and have already qualified for the semifinal. This match will kick off at 3 PM IST on Saturday at Holkar International Stadium in Indore. Here are the fantasy cricket tips and other details.

Australia Women Preview 

Australia Women have been the best team of this tournament. No team has been able to challenge them, and the strong players have made this team look like an unbeatable side. They have players like Sutherland, Mooney, Healy, and Gardner, who are in red-hot form and doing a great job for the team.

• Key Batters: Alyssa Healy and Ash Gardner will be the ones to watch out for in this game.
• Captaincy: Captain Healy missed the last game, but she is expected to be back. She has two consecutive hundreds to her name.
• Batting Strength: Healy, Gardner, Mooney, and Sutherland have scored runs and are just playing match-winning knocks. Healy and Litchfield are giving them good starts, and Mooney, Gardner, and Sutherland are not letting the opposition bowler settle down.
• Bowling Attack: The biggest strength of Australia is that they have batters who can win games with the ball as well. Sutherland is the top wicket taker, and then they have other bowlers who are also doing their job perfectly.

South Africa Women Preview 

South Africa have managed to win five consecutive games, but this is a big game for them. Ahead of the semi-final, this game will test their preparation. They are up against the best side, and they themselves need something special to compete in this match.

• Batting: Laura Wolvaardt and Tazmin Brits have looked good with the bat. Kapp and Luus are coming off half-centuries in the previous game. Tyron and De Klerk are finishing the game. So, apart from one or two batters, they have batters with runs.
• Bowling: Bowling can be a slight issue for them. Mlaba and Klaas have looked good,, but they have to be more consistent. Kapp has not picked up the number of wickets she would have liked. Though they are a good bowling unit, they need everyone to contribute.
