BCCI on Saturday announced an unchanged Indian Women's Cricket squad for 4th and 5th women's T20 international against South Africa. All the T20I matches are being played in Surat, followed by a three-match ODI series against the same opponent in Vadodara.
After winning the first ODI, India lead series 1-0, while the second ODI of the five-match series was abandoned due to rain.
