SL-W Team News
After failing to make the final in the three previous Women’s Asia Cups, Sri Lanka Women went all the way only to lose to India Women in the 2022 Women’s Asia Cup. They have a consistent record in the tournament with five final appearances.
SL-W Team Batting
Captain Chamari Athapaththu is the most experienced and talented of Sri Lanka Women’s batters and as ever she will be crucial to her team’s chances in this match. Alongside her, Harshitha Samarawickrama and Kavisha Dilhari will also be key.
SL-W Team Bowling
Although batting is her primary discipline, Sri Lanka’s captain also has the ability to win a game with her off-spin and particularly in Dambulla this could be the case. The experienced 37 year old spinner Inoshi Priyadharshani will also have an important role to play.
SL-W Team Form
Sri Lanka Women come into this game looking to end a run of two successive defeats.

BAN-W Team News
This will be Bangladesh Women’s sixth successive appearance at a Women’s Asia Cup although their 2022 showing was their worst of the lot as they finished in fifth. They did win the 2018 edition and remain the only team other than India Women to lift the trophy.
BAN-W Team Batting
As usual, captain Nigar Sultana will be very busy during this match combining her leadership duties with keeping wicket and being Bangladesh Women’s most talented batter. Alongside her, we expect opener Dilara Akter to bat with real aggression at the top of the order.
BAN-W Team Bowling
Bangladesh Women have an exciting bowling attack although they sometimes struggle away from home. That should not be too much of an issue in Sri Lanka though as the conditions are very similar. Rabeya Khan and Nahida Akter are two of their most talented bowlers.
BAN-W Team Form
Bangladesh Women are in poor form with defeats in all five of their last WT20Is.
BAN Women Predicted Playing 11
Dilara Akter, Sobhana Mostary, Rubya Haider, Nigar Sultana (c) (wk), Ritu Moni, Shorna Aktker, Shorifa Khatun, Rabeya Khan, Nahida Akter, Sultana Khatun, Fariha Trisna
🏆 SL Women vs BAN Women Prediction
Both of these sides are used to going deep in the Women’s Asia Cup and it would be no surprise to see them make at least the semi-finals in this edition. This should be a close contest but we are backing Sri Lanka Women to get the win.
