IND-W vs SL-W Team Previews

India Women

India’s dominance in this rivalry continued in the first T20I as they chased 122 in only 14.4 overs, finishing on 122 for 2.

Jemimah Rodrigues was the star of the show with a fluent 69* off 44 balls, while Smriti Mandhana’s run‑a‑ball 25 set the tone at the top.​

Mandhana remains the anchor of India’s batting, having piled up 445 runs in her last ten T20Is at an average of 44.50 and a strike rate near 140.
​
Rodrigues has also been highly consistent, scoring 318 runs across her last ten innings at close to 40 on average, striking above 145.​

With the ball, Deepti Sharma and Shree Charani have been India’s standout performers in recent games. Deepti has 15 wickets from her last ten T20Is at an impressive strike-rate of just over 15, while Charani has 11 wickets in six matches at an even better strike-rate.

Their control through the middle overs, backed up by India’s seam options, makes it difficult for Sri Lanka to accelerate without taking big risks.

India Women Expected Playing 11

Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Amanjot Kaur, Richa Ghosh (wk), Deepti Sharma, Vaishnavi Sharma, Arundhati Reddy, Sneh Rana, Shree Charani.

Sri Lanka Women

Sri Lanka came into the series as clear underdogs and their defeat in the first match followed the script, though the batting collapse owed a lot to chaotic running between the wickets.
​
Three run-outs in an otherwise steady innings robbed them of momentum at the back end, leaving them stuck on a below‑par 121 for 6.​

Harshitha Samarawickrama again shapes as the key batter, with 236 runs from her last ten T20Is at an average close to 30 and a strike rate around 110.
​
Skipper Chamari Athapaththu remains their most dangerous all-rounder, contributing 147 runs from her last eight matches and picking up seven wickets in that period, though her T20 strike rate has been under 100 of late.​

Athapaththu and Kavisha Dilhari carry most of the bowling responsibility, but beyond them the attack has lacked bite, particularly at the death.
​
Unless Sri Lanka tighten up both their fielding and their discipline with the ball, it is hard to see them consistently containing India’s top order on this surface.

Sri Lanka Women Expected Playing 11

Chamari Athapaththu (c), Vishmi Gunaratne, Harshitha Samarawickrama, Kavisha Dilhari, Nilakshika Silva, Kaushini Nuthyangana (wk), Malsha Shehani, Kawya Kavindi, Inoka Ranaweera, Malki Madara, Shashini Gimhani.

IND-W vs SL-W Toss Prediction

The ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium has hosted a small sample of women’s T20Is so far, with chasing sides winning the majority of games.

With India having just cruised to a chase on this ground, expect the toss winner—especially Sri Lanka—to consider bowling first and trying to put scoreboard pressure on later.

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

Visakhapatnam generally offers a balanced surface in women’s T20Is, with par scores hovering in the 120–140 range and both seamers and spinners having a role.The relatively large ground dimensions make boundary‑hitting slightly harder, but timing and placement are rewarded, as Rodrigues showed in the first game.​

Conditions for the second T20I are expected to be clear and pleasant, with temperatures around 23°C and no significant rain threat, so a full 40-over contest is on the cards.

IND-W vs SL-W: Who Will Win?

India come into this match with overwhelming advantages in form, depth, and home conditions, plus a dominant 20–5 lead in the all‑time head‑to‑head. Sri Lanka will need a near‑perfect performance—especially in running between the wickets and fielding—to push this series back to level terms.
​
Given India’s strong top order, superior bowling attack, and psychological edge from the first game, the hosts are justified favourites to close out a 2–0 lead.

Bet on India Women to win.
