South Africa Women's Cricket Team Makes History with First Win Over Australia

Captain Laura Wolvaardt's unbeaten half-century and pacer Masabata Klaas's impressive bowling performance lead South Africa to a series-leveling victory.

South Africa Women's cricket team defeated Australia Women's team for the first time in international cricket, winning by six wickets in the second T20I at the Manuka Oval in Canberra.
South Africa Women's team captain, Laura Wolvaardt, led the team's chase, remaining unbeaten on 58 off 53 balls, an impressive knock featuring six fours.
South African pacer Masabata Klaas impressed with 2/16 from three overs, restricting Australia to 142/6.
The victory levels the series after Australia won the opening contest.
This was the 24th time Australia and South Africa had clashed in women's cricket (ODIs and T20Is), with a tied ODI in 2016 being the closest South Africa had come to victory before.
