India will face Sri Lanka in a crucial Group A match of the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 on Wednesday, aiming to fix their batting woes and boost their net run rate. After a mixed start to the tournament, India will look for a more comprehensive performance against a struggling Sri Lankan side, who are placed at the bottom of the table.
India’s campaign so far: A mixed start
India’s tournament opener saw them suffer a heavy 58-run defeat to New Zealand, exposing concerns in their batting line-up. However, they bounced back against arch-rivals Pakistan, although it took them 18.5 overs to chase down a modest target of 105. As they gear up for their third match, India will need to address their batting vulnerabilities and seek a convincing win.
With the race for semi-final spots heating up, India will look to gain momentum with a dominant performance against Sri Lanka.
