Chennai, South Africa all-rounder Chloe Tryon admitted on Wednesday that her team would need to deliver consistent performance to give them confidence in the upcoming Women's T20 World Cup in Bangladesh later this year.
The South African team is currently touring India. They have lost all three ODIs and the one-off Test.
With the three-match T20 Internationals starting on Friday and the series being her last competitive build-up before the global event, Tryon feels making the right decisions at the right time will be vital.
"We have played very good cricket in patches, but to reduce it, we have to be more consistent. We have to do well in all aspects of the game and make sure we do the right things at the right stages." she told reporters during an interaction here on Wednesday.
"If we make those right (decisions), it will give us a lot of confidence going into the World Cup."
The 30-year-old praised her batsmen for showing great resilience during the unique Test and praised them for taking the game to the deep end.
"It was really good to see, especially the character they showed. The Test match was not easy after Day 1. But, if you look at how they got to Day 3 and Day 4, it was fantastic to see," she said. .
"Every batsman was determined to try and take it as far as he could. Some of them achieved some milestones, which will give them a lot of confidence going into the T20Is."
"Being part of the WPL has been fantastic"

Although Tryon suffered an injury last year that she sustained during the Women's Big Bash League, she has since returned and managed to appear in five T20Is.
Although her numbers are not that convincing, she was part of the Women's Premier League this year and she felt that her stint with the Mumbai Indians will help her a lot in the future.
"It has been a great experience working with world-class coaches (in the WPL). I used to play against Jhulan Goswami when I was younger, so having her as a (bowling) coach is fantastic. She has given me a lot and helped me in my game with little techniques that I could practice," he continued.
"Being part of the WPL has been fantastic. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to play any matches. But looking at the team and having world-class all-round players, it's completely understandable."
Tryon, a veteran of her camp, was asked if she had been assigned any particular role.
While she admitted that she intended to bat for a long time, she also felt that helping the youngsters on the team will be one of her roles.
"We're still having those discussions (about my role), but I want to hit while I'm out there and deepen the game. Over the last few months, I've learned that the more I can hit, the more time we have to get a big result.
"I'm also happy with the ball because lately I've been much more consistent.
"There are a lot of young people coming in. Hopefully, I can give them all the information I can so they can learn everything they can," she concluded.
