Sri Lanka Women (SL-W) are all set to face off against India Women (IND-W) in the first match of the Women's Tri-Series 2025 on Sunday, April 27 at the R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo. The high-voltage game is slated to start at 10 AM IST.

Led by Harmanpreet Kaur, India Women are riding high on confidence after defeating Ireland earlier this year, while Sri Lanka, despite losing their series against New Zealand, will be eager to bounce back at home.

And for fantasy players, this match brings some mouth-watering picks. So if you are building your Dream11 team, here are the top 3 captain and vice-captain picks who could help you rake in the maximum points.

3. Deepti Sharma

Why Will Deepti Sharma Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

If you are looking for a rock-solid all-rounder to lock in big Dream11 points, look no further than Deepti Sharma. She has been India’s silent warrior for years and 2025 has seen her at her lethal best. In just three ODIs this year, she has already scalped 7 wickets at a miserly economy rate of 3.66, tying down batters with her sharp off-spin.

But it’s not just her bowling, Deepti has over 2000 ODI runs, peppered with 12 fifties and a century. She is the classic two-bite cherry: can anchor the innings if needed and run through a middle order with the ball. On slower Colombo tracks, where bowlers who vary pace succeed, Deepti could be a real game-changer which makes her an ideal candidate for both captain and vice-captain slots.

2. Chamari Athapaththu

Why Will Chamari Athapaththu Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

When you talk about Sri Lanka Women's cricket, the first name that pops up is Chamari Athapaththu. She is a match-winner who thrives under pressure. A free-stroking left-hander at the top, Chamari has smashed 383 runs against India in ODIs, including a sensational century.

She doesn’t just stop with the bat she is a handy bowler too, having picked up 6 wickets against India, proving her true all-rounder value. In home conditions at Colombo, expect her to open the batting and maybe even roll her arm over if needed. Given her experience, her flair for big occasions and the bonus points she can rack up with both bat and ball, Chamari is the ultimate captain or vice-captain pick.

1. Smriti Mandhana

Why Will Smriti Mandhana Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

There is red hot form, and then there is Smriti Mandhana 2025 edition, simply untouchable. Smriti has been batting like a dream, hammering 249 runs in just 3 ODIs this year at a stunning strike rate of 152.76. She already has a century and a fifty to her name in 2025 alone.

And when it comes to facing Sri Lanka, Mandhana has been nothing short of a nightmare for the Lankans with 437 runs in 13 ODIs, including five half-centuries. She knows these bowlers inside out and on Premadasa surface, she could make merry. Her ability to give fast starts and build big scores makes her the safest captaincy or vice-captaincy pick.
