The BCCI has announced India's women's cricket team for the ODI, T20I, and Test series against South Africa. Harmanpreet Kaur will lead the Indian team in the upcoming multi-format series that will commence on 16 June 2024 and end on 9 July 2024, consisting of a 3-match ODI, a one-off Test match, and three T20Is. Smriti Mandhana will be the vice-captain of the team. The South African women's cricket team will travel to India for the month-long series.
The Indian squad includes star players Jemimah Rodrigues, and Pooja Vastrakar depending upon their availability to fitness, as Jemimah missed the T20I series against Bangladesh due to a back injury during the Senior Women's Inter Zonal Multi-Day Trophy. Asha Sobhana, Dayalan Hemalatha, and Uma Chetry also received their maiden ODI and T20I call-ups along with phenomenal talents across all formats for the series. Additionally, Priya Punia returns to the team after a year, having been unsold in the WPL auction.
