IND-W vs SA-W: Amanjot Kaur Returns, Renuka Singh Dropped for Vizag Clash

Ahead of India’s clash against South Africa Women in Vizag on Thursday, October 9, 2025, the Indian team has made a notable change: Amanjot Kaur returns to the playing XI, while Renuka Singh is dropped following the win against Pakistan.

Amanjot missed India’s victory over Pakistan due to illness but had shone in the opener against Sri Lanka, scoring 57 off 56 balls and forming a 103-run partnership with Deepti Sharma. She also contributed with the ball, picking up a wicket during the match. Renuka Singh, on the other hand, bowled economically against Pakistan, registering 10-1-29-0, but goes out to make way for the returning all-rounder.
