'Invincible' Australia Stand Between South Africa And Women's T20 World Cup Title

South Africa will get their fairytale finish at home if they find a way to halt the Australian juggernaut in the Women's T20 World Cup final in Cape Town on Sunday. South Africa showed commendable fighting spirit to upset England in the semifinal but they will need to stitch together a perfect game to topple the mighty Australia, who are the record five-time champions and are in their seventh successive final. South Africa have made rapid strides over the past 12 months and after making the semifinals of the ODI World Cup last year, they entered their maiden final of an ICC event here on Friday.

In Laura Wolvaardt and Tazmin Brits, a former world junior javelin champion whose Olympic dream was shattered in 2012 due to a car accident, South Africa have one of the best opening pairings in the tournament.

They both go into the final in top form and are vital to the team's chances against Australia who managed to beat India in the semifinals despite not playing their best game.

All-rounder Marizanne Kapp is another important player for South Africa and produced a much needed cameo in the semis.

Skipper Sune Luus thinks she has the world's best bowling attack at her disposal and why not when you have the express pace duo of Shabnam Ismail and Ayabonga Khaka in your ranks.

The crowd will be fully behind South Africa and the home team will look to feed off them like they did on Friday.

Australia had comfortably beaten South Africa in the group stage but they will be wary of them in the title clash.

Australia, who by far have been the most successful side in women's cricket history, look good to extend their dominance.

They have all bases covered and no total is safe when they are chasing. India needed only 39 off the last five
