Sri Lanka and Thailand will lock horns in the third quarterfinal of the 2023 Asian Games in women’s cricket event. The Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field in Hangzhou will host the clash on Friday, September 22.
Sri Lanka will be captained by Chamari Athapaththu, who was exceptional in the recent T20I series against England. She has been an asset for her team across formats for over a decade now.
Udeshika Prabodhani and Inoka Ranaweera are expected to play key roles for Sri Lanka with the ball. Nilakshi de Silva has plenty of experience and she needs to bring all of it to the fore.
Vishmi Gunaratne has come up the ranks in the last few months since taking part in the U19 T20 World Cup. She is most likely to open the batting with Athapaththu.
Thailand have shown promise over the years. Led by Naruemol Chaiwai, they will be looking to put in a strong show against Sri Lanka. Natthakan Chantham is one of the players active in T20 leagues across the globe.
