The Men in Blue have won their last four T20 series against South Africa and another win here would bolster their claim to top position in the ICC rankings.
But this tour will prove dauntingly tough on an inexperienced Indian side with only four members from their T20 World Cup-winning squad (Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Arshdeep Singh and Axar Patel) still present on tour while others lack international experience.
India will be without their ODI captain Rohit Sharma and pace sensation Mayank Agarwal due to injury issues, however their place will be taken by uncapped trio Amanjot Kaur, Khalid Latif and Shivam Dube.
Given this limited batting options available to him, captain Virat Kohli must lead from the front in order to keep India competitive on tour.
Both teams will aim to enhance their bowling performances in what promises to be an entertaining encounter. India Women come into this clash having just recorded an emphatic nine-wicket victory against Sri Lanka at R. Premadasa Stadium while South Africa Women look for some form after suffering disappointment on tour in England.
New Zealand will hope to repeat their impressive performance against South Africa when they bat first, however without Laura Wolvaardt, Tazmin Brits, and Chloe Tryon missing from their side it seems unlikely they can do so.
The match will be broadcast live in Australia on Fox Cricket 501 and sports streaming specialist Kayo Sports offers full live coverage with monthly plans starting from $25 (after a 7-day free trial).
