South Africa Women vs Ireland Women U-19 Chance of Winning
South Africa Women topped Group C after winning each of their three matches in the group stage. They defeated New Zealand by 22 runs, Samao by 10 wickets and Nigeria by 41 runs (DLS Method). On the other hand, Ireland Women finished third in Group B after losing and winning a match each. Their first match against Ireland ended without a result.
South Africa Women look set for their fourth consecutive win in the Women's U-19 T20 World Cup. They have been assertive over their opponents and are riding high on confidence. They sizzled with the bat and ball against New Zealand, before absolutely toying with Samoa for a 10-wicket win in a match which lasted in just 65 balls. South Africa Women bowlers bundled out Samoa batters for 16 runs before restricting Nigeria for 24/8 in the following game.
The Irish team has blown hot and cold. They were bundled out for 75 against USA, scored 65/5 in the nine-over match against Pakistan, and won by 13 runs (DLS Method). However, any sort of glitches against an in-form team like South Africa can cost Ireland dearly. South Africa are ahead of Ireland in all the departments, but look set for a one-sided win on the back of their bowling unit which has been on fire in the last two games.

Our Prediction
Unbeaten South Africa Women are red hot favourites to beat Ireland Women in their first match of the U19 Women's T20 World Cup 2025. South Africa have been consistent, especially their bowlers, and Ireland batters could find it very difficult to negate through the challenge. One South Africa Women bowler has picked six wickets each, while two have picked four wickets each. Just one bowler from Ireland has picked four wickets. Also, just one Ireland Women batter has managed to score more than 25 runs in the tournament so far. South Africa look set to carry forward their winning momentum.

South Africa Women vs Ireland Women Betting Tips
In the rain-marred eight-over match against Nigeria, South Africa opener Simore Lourens chipped in with 25 runs off 29 balls with the help of four boundaries. So far in the tournament, the 17-year-old right-hander has scored 52 runs at an average of 26 and a strike rate of 106.12. She would be aiming for another handy contribution on Saturday.
