Women's Asia Cup T20 2022, Match 2, India Women vs Sri Lanka Women: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming Details
The second game of the Women’s Asia Cup T20 2022 will see India Women square off against Sri Lanka Women. The Sylhet Outer Cricket Stadium will host this exciting contest on Saturday (October 1).
India Women are coming off a series win over England Women. They whitewashed the English side in the recently concluded ODI series. However, they lost the three-match T20I series by a 2-1 margin. India Women will be hoping to be at their best in the upcoming Asia Cup 2022.
Harmanpreet Kaur will lead the side, who are one of the contenders to lift the Asia Cup title. The likes of Kaur, Smriti Mandhana, and Deepti Sharma have plenty of experience, which will come in handy. The Indian side will be eager to kick-start the competition on a winning note.
Sri Lanka Women, on the other hand, haven’t had much game time in recent times. Their last international fixture came on August 4 when they took on South Africa Women in the Commonwealth Games 2022 women’s cricket competition. A disappointing performance saw the Lankans get knocked out of the competition in the first round, after failing to win a single game.
Chamari Athapaththu will continue to lead the Lankan side in the Women’s Asia Cup T20 2022. The other players need to step up and contribute as an over-reliance on Athapaththu has hurt the side in recent times. They will have to bring out their A-game to challenge the Indian side on Saturday.
