ENG-W vs SL-W Betting Tips
Chamari Athapaththu to score Over 26.5 runs
Chamari Athapaththu is the leading run-scorer for Sri Lanka W in ODIs. She has scored at least 27 runs in each of her last 3 outings, including 2 half-centuries. We are therefore backing her to play a good knock here.
Linsey Smith to pick up Over 1.5 wickets
Linsey Smith is the joint-highest wicket-taker for England in this tournament and has picked up at least 2 wickets in both her outings. She has played 6 ODIs to date and has picked up at least 2 wickets in 5 of them, including a 5-wicket haul. As the pitch is Colombo does help the slower bowlers, we reckon that she will bowl a good spell.

ENG-W vs SL-W Team Previews
England Women
The England women’s team has enjoyed a perfect start to their latest campaign, winning both their matches so far, and is sitting at the top of the points table.
England’s latest win came against Bangladesh on Tuesday, where they chased down a modest target of 179 runs. However, it wasn’t a perfect victory as the top order laboured its way to chase a modest target of 179. England would be relieved to see that the middle order is in good form.
Heather Knight scored an excellent half-century and was well-supported by the likes of Nat Sciver-Brunt, Charlie Dean, and Alice Capsey. England has plenty of depth in its batting, and that is a big positive for them.
Coming to the bowling, the spinners have done an excellent job so far. Sophie Ecclestone and Linsey Smith are the leading wicket-takers for the team and have received good support from Alice Capsey and Charlie Dean. The new-ball attack consists of Nat Sciver-Brunt and Lauren Bell, who have picked up 2 wickets each.
England Women Expected Playing 11
Tammy Beaumont, Amy Jones (WK), Heather Knight, Nat Sciver-Brunt (C), Sophia Dunkley, Emma Lamb, Charlie Dean, Alice Capsey, Sophie Ecclestone, Lauren Bell, Linsey Smith

Sri Lanka Women
Sri Lanka lost its opening fixture, while its latest match was washed out, allowing it to share points with Australia. While these are still early days in the tournament, Sri Lanka needs to get back to winning ways sooner rather than later.
A lot will depend on the opening pair of Chamari Athapaththu and Hasini Perera. The duo is among the most experienced batters in the Sri Lankan batting line-up and will look to give the team a solid start.
The middle order has some talented players, including Harshita Madavi, Vishmi Gunaratne, and Anushka Sanjeewani, while all-rounder Kavisha Dilhari adds depth to the batting. Sri Lanka’s bowlers, barring Inoka Ranaweera, were a bit inconsistent.
The other spinners were a bit expensive and needed to bowl a better line and length going ahead. Achini Kulasuriya and Udeshika Prabodhani will lead the attack with the new ball.
Sri Lanka Women Expected Playing 11
Hasini Perera, Chamari Athapaththu (C), Kavisha Dilhari, Harshitha Madavi, Vishmi Gunaratne, Nilakshi de Silva, Anushka Sanjeewani (WK), Achini Kulasuriya, Sugandika Kumari, Udeshika Prabodhani, Inoka Ranaweera
ENG-W vs SL-W Toss Prediction
6 of the last 10 matches played here were won while batting first. In 6 of those games, the team winning the toss opted to field first. However, we feel that batting first might be a better option.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
There has been some rain in Colombo over the past few days, and there is plenty of moisture under the surface. The pitch has some grassy patches, and if the quicker bowlers pitch the ball in the right areas, there could be movement off the seam. The spinners could play an important role in this game. Anything over 260 will be tricky to chase.
The weather is expected to remain overcast throughout the day, with potential interruptions due to rain.
ENG-W vs SL-W: Who Will Win?
We are backing England to win this match. They have been in good form this year, and most of the players are in good form. On the other hand, Sri Lanka has some quality youngsters. However, they could be overly dependent on Chamari Athapaththu to see them through.
Bet on England Women to win.
ENG-W vs SL-W win percentage stands at 86% in favor of ENG-W.
