Sri Lanka Women are all set to host West Indies Women for the ODI series, set to begin from June 15 in Galle. Expectations of fans will be high from both sides, filled with familiar names and superstars of the Women cricket.
Preparation of Sri Lanka women
For the Sri Lanka Women’s team, this series marks essential groundwork for the upcoming 2024 Women’s T20 Asia Cup. Sri Lanka earned their place in the 2024 ICC Women’s T20 World Cup by defeating UAE Women in the second semi-final of the Qualifier held in May.
Recent performance of West Indies women
The West Indies Women’s squad has arrived in Sri Lanka following an impressive showing against Pakistan Women. They clinched a convincing 4-1 win in the T20I series and earlier swept the ODI series 3-0, under the leadership of captain Hayley Matthews.
