The Scarlets head to Italy today, hoping to get their season back on the road after two significant defeats in South Africa over the last fortnight.
Having regained her confidence with runs in the previous game, India opener Shafali Verma is relishing the prospect of facing the South African pacers in their must-win Women's World Cup match on Sunday. The teenager has not been in the best of form in the ongoing tournament and was dropped from the playing XI before being called back for the game against Australia. "I'm always ready for any sort of situation whether I was not in the squad. When I was included against Australia, I was ready for it as I always thought that I may be given a chance on any given day," Verma said at a pre-match press conference.
ICC Women's World Cup 2022 hosts New Zealand finished their journey in the tournament on a high as they defeated Pakistan by 71 runs at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch on Saturday. Despite the win, the White Ferns failed to qualify for the semi-finals and ended with six points that included three wins and four defeats. Pakistan, on the other hand, also ended their World Cup, having won one game and lost six matches. New Zealand are currently ranked sixth while Pakistan occupy the bottom-most spot with just two points.
The Women's World Cup 2022 is reaching its business end with the league stage all but over. Despite just two matches remaining, only two teams are guaranteed a spot in the semi-finals so far -- table-toppers Australia and South Africa. The last two spots in the top four are still up for grabs with India very much in the running to take one of them. However, it will be easier said than done as India take on second-placed South Africa in the final match before the semi-final stage. England clash against Bangladesh in the first match of a Super Sunday.

Virat Kohli the batter but the focus will still remain on the maestro in Royal Challengers Bangalore's IPL-15 opener against Punjab Kings here on Sunday. For, it will be the first time Kohli will not be leading RCB in nearly a decade, turning out only as a player, instead. Relinquishing captaincy, however, will in no way take away any attention from Kohli, who will look to rediscover his glorious touch and power the franchise to a maiden title triumph in the 2022 edition of the event, which begins in Mumbai on Saturday.
Suzie Bates produced her 12th ODI century and became just the fourth player to reach 5,000 runs in the format as New Zealand beat Pakistan by 71 runs in what is likely their final match at the Women's World Cup.
So far in the tournament, the 2017 runners-up haven't fired in the manner they would have like to. With three wins and as many losses India, who are in the fifth spot with six points in the overall standings, find themselves in a must-win situation heading into their final league match.
