Image
  South Africa pulled off a stunning 6-wicket victory against India in Match 18 of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2026, played at the Old Trafford Cricket Ground, Manchester on June 21, 2026. India posted a competitive 158/7 in their 20 overs, but South Africa chased it down convincingly with 161/4 in just 19.1 overs. The win has firmly established South Africa as one of the serious contenders in this tournament. India's Batting — A Competitive Total, But Not Enough India's batting unit put up a solid fight, posting 158/7 from their 20 overs at Old Trafford. The total looked competitive on paper, and India would have been reasonably confident going into the break. However, in a tournament where batting conditions in England tend to favour batters, 158 was always going to be a chaseable target for a confident South African side. India's middle order worked hard to build partnerships, but they couldn't accelerate enough in the death overs to push the total beyond 16...
