The 2017 South Africa Women's Quadrangular Series was an international women's cricket tournament that was held in Potchefstroom, South Africa, from 4 to 21 May 2017.[1] The series was contested between the teams of India, Ireland, South Africa and Zimbabwe.[2] The matches were played at Senwes Park and The PUK Oval.[3] All the matches were played as Women's One Day International (WODI) matches, except for fixtures that featured Zimbabwe, who do not have WODI status.[4]

Ahead of the tournament, South Africa's captain Dane van Niekerk was ruled out of the tournament due to a foot injury.[5] South Africa named an interim captain, but they did not add a replacement to their squad.[5]

India won the tournament, beating South Africa by eight wickets in the final.[6]
