From the current England squad, Katherine Sciver-Brunt (15 wickets) and Sophie Ecclestone (11 wickets) are the leading wicket-takers versus South Africa.
Nat Sciver-Brunt is the highest run-getter (176 at 88) for the tournament and has been a part of the Best11 in four of her last five games. When she last batted at Newlands, she hammered 81* off 40.
Although Danielle Wyatt failed to make an impact in the first few matches, she will be high on confidence after her blazing 59 off 33 in her last game at Cape Town.
Six fifties have been slammed in the last three games at Newlands, out of which four belonged to the openers.
