India vs Sri Lanka 2nd T20I Preview
India Women began the T20I series in commanding fashion, seamlessly extending the momentum from their triumphant 2025 World Cup campaign. Under Harmanpreet Kaur's leadership, the hosts cruised to an emphatic eight-wicket win on Sunday, completing the chase with more than five overs to spare. Jemimah Rodrigues anchored the innings with a fluent unbeaten fifty, ensuring there were no late hiccups for the Indian side.
With the opening match firmly in their control, India will be keen to press home their advantage and build a decisive lead in the series. Their bowlers laid the foundation for the victory, applying sustained pressure that kept the Sri Lankan batters in check throughout the innings.
Sri Lanka Women, meanwhile, endured a disappointing outing. Led by Chamari Athapaththu, the visitors struggled to find rhythm as India's disciplined attack choked the scoring rate. Although they lost only a handful of wickets, Sri Lanka managed just 121 runs, a total that never truly threatened the hosts. Heading into the next match, the Lankan side will be eager to regroup, sharpen their execution and mount a stronger challenge to keep the series alive.
