Proteas Women looking to keep momentum in T20I series against India

The home side have claimed three dominant victories in the five-match with the fourth game set to be played at the Wanderers on Saturday.

Tryon explained the team's goals for the remainder of the series, highlighting the focus on building towards the upcoming Women's T20 World Cup in England in June.

"The batting has improved a lot, and I feel like our bowling has come a long way, especially after a tough New Zealand series," Tryon said.

"I still think our fielding is probably something we can work on. The good thing about playing against India and not doing well in the field is that we're still winning matches.

"Hopefully, all of that can come together, and we can put in a perfect performance. We've got two important games still coming up - building blocks for us.

"If we can just tighten up on those small things, it will give us really good confidence going into a World Cup."

Tryon, like many in the game, waxed lyrical about the superb batting contributions of of her captain Laura Wolvaardt so far in the series.

The Proteas Women's skipper has notched up three consecutive scores of 50+ in the series that included the fastest ever century in the format by a South African women in the last encounter.

"It's been amazing to watch her go about her business," Tryon said about Wolvaardt. "It’s just world-class. She had so much fun and a big smile on her face, which was so nice to see.

"It gives you a lot of confidence going into a World Cup, being in that mindset. Hopefully, she can continue to do that. She's going to break a lot of records. I mean, she's only 26. Crazy."
