Unblock your free stream with NordVPN (Save 75%) England vs South Africa begins the semi-final stage of the Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025. Both sides have shown some really quality at moments during this tournament, so we could be in for a tight race to the final. There is no doubt that England go into this match as favourites. They beat New Zealand convincingly in their last group stage match and have also beaten hosts India. They have danger throughout the batting lineup, with Heather Knight, Nat Sciver-Brunt, and Amy Jones all putting in strong performances at different points. England also posses the not-so-secret weapon of Sophie Ecclestone. The world’s best bowler has picked up 12 wickets so far in the tournament, as has teammate Linsey Smith. South Africa, meanwhile, were perhaps not fancied to go this deep into the tournament. However, good wins against Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan have got them into the final four. Laura Wolvaardt has racked up over 300 runs so far this tournament. The English will know they have to get her out before she gets settled into her innings.
