Australia Women (AU-W) will be starting their campaign in Women's T20 World Cup 2024 against the Sri Lanka Women (SL-W). This will be the fifth match of the tournament and it will be played at the iconic Sharjah Cricket Stadium in the UAE.

Ahead of this game, here is a look at the Dream11 predictions, the fantasy cricket tips, the pitch report and the best predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match. 

AU-W vs SL-W Preview

The standard of the Australian team in Women's cricket is a league above the others. Out of the eight editions of the tournament, Australia have won the title six times. They will be eyeing their seventh title and continue their dominance in the cricketing arena. This time the legendary Meg Lanning will not be leading the Aussies. Alyssa Healy will be in charge of this time around and she will be eager to continue the legacy ahead. 

Sri Lanka have already played one game in the tournament. The Chamari Athapaththu-led side put on a dismal batting show in the match against Pakistan. While chasing 117 runs, the Sri Lankan team was restricted to 85/9 in their 20 overs and they lost the game by a convincing margin of 31 runs.
