Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma will probably open the inning.

Sri-Lanka Women:
SL-W Batting
Skipper Chamari Atapathuthu has had a poor run of form across the Women’s CPL, Women’s 6ixty and the 2022 Commonwealth Games. However, she hit 80 not out from 69 balls and 43 runs from 60 balls in her last two WT20Is against India Women.
SL-W Bowling
36-year-old left-arm spinner Inoka Ranaweera took the most wickets for Sri Lanka Women in both games of the Commonwealth Games when they made any dismissals. She returned figures of 3-29 against England Women and 3-30 against New Zealand Women.
SL-W Form
Sri Lanka Women have won only one of their last nine WT20Is. However, that victory came against India Women in late June.
India Women:
IND-W Batting
Vice-captain Smriti Mandhana was India Women’s highest run scorer during the WT20I series against England Women and scored 79 not out from 53 balls in Derby. Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur scored 143 not out in the WODI series in Canterbury.
IND-W Bowling
Renuka Singh had an excellent period in the UK, ending the 2022 Commonwealth Games as the top wicket taker with 11 dismissals from five matches. However, we expect off-spinner Sneh Rana, who starred during the WT20Is against England, to enjoy the conditions in Sylhet.
IND-W Form
India Women’s form in WT20Is has not been that strong over recent games. They have won only two of their last five matches.
