Vadodara: Indian women cricket team captain Mithali Raj won the toss and decided to bat against South Africa in the third One Day International (ODI) match, here, at the Reliance Stadium on Friday.
Mitahali Raj-led Team is leading the three-match ODI series against South Africa women 2-0. When India will face South Africa they will aim for a whitewash in the third and last ODI match.
South Africa, on the other hand, will aim to register a consolatory win when they face formidable India on Monday.
Currently, both India and South Africa are holding 16 points in 15 matches each. That's why the third limited over match holds greater significance as both the sides look to keep their respective positions safe in the top four of the ICC ODI championship points table.
