England vs South Africa T20 W World Cup best bets

This England v South Africa T20W preview is no exception, we have cast our eye over the betting markets and found some value tips. You can read more T20 Women’s World Cup tips here.

Sophie Eccleston to top the wickets for England

Eccleston is a rising star in women’s cricket, and arguably the best spinner at the T20 Women’s World Cup. Eccleston is likely to sit behind several of her more prominent team-mates in the betting markets, and anything over 4.50 for most wickets is good value. A sneaky bet on Eccleston for player of the tournament would also not be the worst bet.

Dane van Niekerk for player of the match

The South African captain is one of the best players in world cricket, and can dominate any opposition on her day. Van Niekerk averages 29 in T20 Internationals, putting her in elite company, while her leg-spin bowling is more than servicable with 59 wickets in 79 matches.

South Africa v England winner prediction T20 Women’s World Cup 23/2/2020

Both of these teams will believe they can play in a semi-final minimum at the T20 Women’s World Cup, but the betting suggests England is the one that can challenge Australia on home soil. We’re predicting England will defeat South Africa by 6 wickets or 40 runs, but whatever happens the pecking order will begin to take shape after this game.
