IND W vs SL W: Indian women’s cricket team is currently leading 2-0 in the T20 series against Sri Lanka. After defeating Sri Lanka in a one-sided fashion in the first two matches, the Indian team captained by Harmanpreet Kaur will be eyeing a series win in the third match today. This match will be played at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram.
India started the series with a bang in Visakhapatnam. In the first match, India won by 8 wickets thanks to Jemimah Rodrigues’ unbeaten inning of 69 runs. At the same time, in the second match, explosive opener Shefali Verma was brilliant, who played a stormy innings of 69 runs in just 34 balls and led India to victory by 7 wickets.
Dominance of Indian bowlers
Along with batting, India’s bowling has also been very tight in the series. Sneh Rana and Deepti Sharma did not give the Sri Lankan batsmen a chance to open their hands. New bowlers Shri Charani and Vaishnavi Sharma proved their talent by taking 2 wickets each in the second match. The Sri Lankan team failed to cross the figure of 130 in both the matches, which became the main reason for their defeat.
What will be special in the third match?
The third T20 match is being played in Thiruvananthapuram. If India wins this match, it will take an unassailable 3-0 lead in the 5-match series. India would like to win this match and win the series so that its bench strength can be tested in the remaining two matches. It is a ‘do or die’ situation for Sri Lanka.
