IND W vs SL W: India bounced back in their 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup campaign with a crucial six-wicket win over arch-rivals Pakistan, after suffering a 58-run defeat to New Zealand in their opener. The victory has put India back on track, but their semi-final hopes remain precarious, as any further slip-up could significantly hinder their chances. With the daunting challenge of facing defending champions Australia in their final Group A match, a victory against Sri Lanka in their next game is vital for India’s qualification hopes.
Sri Lanka, on the other hand, have had a tough tournament so far, despite entering the World Cup on a high after winning their maiden Asia Cup title earlier this year by defeating India in the final. Their campaign has been marred by consecutive defeats, starting with a 31-run loss to Pakistan and followed by a six-wicket loss to Australia. With two defeats in as many games, Sri Lanka are fighting to stay alive in the tournament.
IND W vs SL W: Head To Head
When it comes to head-to-head encounters, India have historically dominated Sri Lanka, holding a commanding 19-5 record. The two teams first met in the 2009 Women’s T20 World Cup, and India have often had the upper hand in their Asian matchups. However, Sri Lanka’s recent win over India in the final of the Women’s Asia Cup in July, where they claimed an emphatic eight-wicket victory, will give them confidence as they look to replicate that success on the global stage.
Both teams will be desperate for a win in this crucial encounter, with India’s quest to secure a semi-final spot and Sri Lanka’s hope to salvage their campaign hanging in the balance.
