Within the 4th over, Elandri Janse Van Rensburg and star batter Simone Lourens had fallen with just 18 runs scored.South Africa began pushing their luck, Karabo Meso chipped in with a quickfire run a ball 14, before she too was found wanting.
And the fightback began. Seshnie Naidu and Simone Lourens combined with some brilliant bowling and fielding and at 45 for 3, Scotland were staring down the barrel and South Africa looking set to defend the 112 they had set in their innings.
