The 2022–23 South Africa women's Tri-Nation Series was a cricket tournament that took place in South Africa in January and February 2023 as a preparatory series before the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup.[2] [3] [4] It was a tri-nation series between India women, South Africa women and the West Indies women cricket teams, with the matches played as Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) fixtures.[5] In December 2022, Cricket South Africa confirmed the fixtures for the series, with all the matches to be played at Buffalo Park in East London.[6]

The West Indies were eliminated after a 10-wicket defeat to South Africa in their third game of the round-robin stage.[7] Chloe Tryon's unbeaten fifty in the final helped the hosts to claim a 5-wicket victory over India.[8]

Squads

Before the tournament, Cherry-Ann Fraser was ruled out due to injury and was replaced in the squad by Shanika Bruce.[12] The West Indies added Trishan Holder, Zaida James, Djenaba Joseph and Jannillea Glasgow to the squad as injury replacements for their final game of the tournament.[13] All four players had competed in the recently concluded 2023 ICC Under-19 Women's T20 World Cup in South Africa.[14]
