Sri Lanka Women will play against Australia Women in the 11th match of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2023 at St George’s Park in Gqeberha on Thursday, February 16. South Africa is the host of the mega event where the event begins on February 10th with a match between South Africa and Sri Lanka. However, Australia are the defending champion where the final Women’s T20 World Cup match was played in early 2020 at the MCG to watch the hosts Australia beat India by 85 runs. A record number of 86,174 spectators were present there as well.
Meanwhile, South Africa has recently hosted the inaugural Under-19 Women’s T20 World Cup where India registered a convincing win as well. However, most of the games, including both semifinals and the final game, will take place in Newlands as well. While five matches will be played at St George’s Park in Gqeberha over the course of seven days, a few games will take place at Boland Park in Paarl as well. While Australia are the firm favourite, other teams will give a tough fight too and they have already shown their potential in the tournament.
Star Network will telecast the warm-up matches of the mega event in India. The live streaming of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup warm-up matches will be available on the Disney+ Hotstar app and website as well.
