The Indian women's team hold a clear upper hand against their Sri Lankan counterparts in the shortest format of the game.
Sri Lanka women will host India women’s team for three-match T20I series at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium, Dambulla, starting on June 23. All the three matches in the T20I series will be played at the same venue. Sri Lanka will later host India for a three-match ODI series, starting from July 1, which will be played entirely at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele.
India women’s team head coach Ramesh Powar will guide his troops in the series with star batters like Harmanpreet Kaur, Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana in focus. The former India spinner will continue in his coaching position for another year after there were speculations over a change after the national team recorded a dismal performance at the 2022 ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup.
