IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Match Summary!!!

India Women successfully avenged their defeat in the Asia Cup final by securing a comprehensive victory over Sri Lanka Women in this Group A fixture. Following this result, Sri Lanka became the second team, after Scotland, to be eliminated from the race for the semifinals in the ongoing Women's T20 World Cup. This victory marked India's largest win in Women's T20 World Cups in terms of runs, surpassing their 79-run victory over Bangladesh in 2014 with an 82-run win against Sri Lanka.


In the match, India won the toss and elected to bat first. The openers, Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma, provided a strong start for the Women in Blue, adding 98 runs for the first wicket. Captain Harmanpreet Kaur's rapid half-century, remaining unbeaten on 50 off 27 balls, propelled India to a total of 172/3 in 20 overs.


In response, Renuka Singh Thakur made an early breakthrough by dismissing Vishmi Gunaratne for a duck. Shreyanka Patil claimed the crucial wicket of Sri Lanka captain Chamari Athapaththu in the second over. A late surge by Ama Kanchana helped Sri Lanka Women reach a somewhat respectable total, preventing what appeared to be a potential loss by over 100 runs.

Sri Lanka's Women's team was dismissed for 90 runs on the penultimate ball of the match. India's Women's team clinched victory by 82 runs, marking their largest win in terms of runs in the Women's T20 World Cup. The wicket came from a flighted delivery outside the off-stump. Prabodhani attempted to loft over mid-off but miscued the shot, sending the ball towards Mandhana at the mentioned position. Mandhana moved to her back, momentarily fumbled, but ultimately managed to grab the ball.

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Arundhati Reddy🔥

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Wicket!!!

Kanchana holes out in deep! The third catch for Radha Yadav! Reddy bowls a leg cutter on a fuller length outside the off-stump.

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: It's A Matter Of Time Before India Seals A Thumping Win

Sri Lanka have lost seven wickets, reeling 65 for seven at the end of 14 overs. Their hopes for a win is done and dusted! And there goes down the eighth as we speak. India need only two more wickets to bag a thumping win.

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Fifth Wicket Down For Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka women are in deep trouble as they have lost their fifth wicket. Arundhati Reddy strikes and takes her first wicket of the night as she gets rid of Nilakshi de Silva.

21:52 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Sri Lanka 4 Down 😱

Another one bites the dust as Sri Lanka lose their 4th wicket. This is some bowling from India and SL look clueless at the moment. Shobana bowls a flighted ball and Sanjeewani misses her heave as the ball goes straight into the hands of Richa Ghosh who does a simple stumping.


21:46 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Can Sri Lanka do the impossible?

They need 133 off 78 balls, with 7 wickets in hand. The required rate is well above 10 runs per over. Cam they achieve the target? Will they be able to spoil India's party?


21:26 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Gone, Gone, Wicket!!!

This is a disastrous start from the Lankan team. They are felling apart like a pack of cards. Three wickets down and India right on top as they smell an easy win.


21:23 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: WICKET, WICKET ALERT 🚨

Just the wicket India wanted, the dangerous Chamari Athapaththu departs for a low score as Sri Lanka lose their second wicket. Shreyanka Patil strikes and SL are two down already.

21:18 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Radha Yadav pulls off a blinder!

Ohh what a catch by substitute fielder, Radha Yadav. This was full and outside the off from Renuka as SL batter flashes hard and the outside-edge was safely taken by Radha Yadav, who leaped and took a stunner.


21:05 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Harmanpreet Kaur takes India to comfortable total!

This was a special, special innings by Harmanpreet Kaur. She slammed a 27-ball fifty and that has taken India's total to 172/3. At one stage, it looked as if India will be restricted to 140, but her innings was the difference maker as India will be the happier of the two sides heading into the break.


20:56 (IST) Oct 09

Ohhhh Harmanpreet, where were you all this long?? The India captain is playing a blinder here. She is using the field to her advantage and is playing a classical knock here. Can she breach the 50-run mark??


20:47 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Jemiiii departss!!!!

Just what the Indian side didn't need at this stage. A set Jemimah Rodrigues departs after scoring 16 off 10 balls. A soft dismissal as she plays a simple shot at the hands of the fielder at backward point. She looks disappointed and rightly so...


20:45 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Captain Harman on fire 🔥

A boundary, followed by a six to end the innings. Harmanpreet is on fire. India need a strong finish after a fine start and skipper of the Indian team is providing just that.

20:42 (IST) Oct 09

5 overs to go, India at 113, and from here on, they should target 150 at-least. Still plenty of firepower left in the tank and anything less than 150 will be a disappointing affair for the India side.


20:29 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Mandhana departs!!!

Just after breaching the 50-run mark, Mandhana departs after an unfortunate run-out. A bit of miscommunication between the two openers and Mandhana has to walk back to the pavilion.


And well, well, just when I said India are going strong, they have lost both Mandhana and Shafali Verma. Shafali stepped down the track for a heave and gets an outside-edge which is safely taken at covers.


20:28 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Mandhana brings up her fifty!

A class innings from a class player! Mandhana has announced her arrival in this editions' T20 World Cup. A 36-ball fifty and this was a brilliant knock from a champion cricketer.


20:24 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Mandhana, Shafali going all guns blazing!!

The Indian opening pair are etching closer to the score of 100 as India aim to score in excess of 160. Both the batters are closing in on fifties and Sri Lanka at the moment look clueless.


20:15 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Time For Drinks🥤

At the halfway stage, India Women have reached 78/0, with Smriti Mandhana scoring 42 runs off 30 balls and Shafali Verma contributing 35 runs off 30 balls. Mandhana has taken charge of the attack, while Verma, who was aggressive in the powerplay, has now adjusted her approach to support her partner. 


20:06 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: India Women Is On Fire !!!

Chamari Athapaththu conceded 10 runs in her first over, putting her team at a disadvantage. Inoka Ranaweera is now returning to the attack.

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Shafali goes higher and higher!



19:48 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Shafali showing intent!

With Mandhana struggling at the other end, Shafali Verma is showing intent and has struck a couple of boundaries to ease the pressure on the Indian team.


19:37 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Slow start by the Indian openers!

Not a single boundary in the first two overs as Smriti and Shafali are dealing in singles. Sri Lanka are operating spinners from both ends as they have tightened the screws on the scoring rate.


19:29 (IST) Oct 09

Players are entering, the umpires are almost ready and we are all set for a riveting T20 battle! Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana to open for the Indian side.


19:24 (IST) Oct 09

Prediction time: India lost against Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup finals, but should walk away victorious here. On paper, they have a better squad and Sri Lanka are down in confident after two humiliating defeats.

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Toss updates!!

India won the toss and Harmanpreet had no hesitation in batting first. Strange decision, India needed to bolster their net run-rate and batting second would have been ideal.


18:59 (IST) Oct 09

Captain Harmanpreet Kaur, who had retired hurt after spraining her neck on Sunday, is fit to play in today’s game. However, she was seen with her neck being strapped.


18:41 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Team India gear up for SL challenge!


18:35 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Key match from Indian perspective!

Team India suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of New Zealand in their tournament opener and despite winning against Pakistan, their net run-rate is still in the minus. They need to win the two games to go to the semis. A loss here and India will crash out of the tournament.


18:19 (IST) Oct 09

IND-W Vs SL-W Live Score: Team Previews

After incurring a huge 58-run defeat to New Zealand, Team India bounced back in style with a six-wicket win against arch-rivals Pakistan. Harmanpreet Kaur and co. will be aiming to sustain their newfound winning momentum with another positive result against Sri Lanka in a bid to enhance their dismal NRR and climb higher on the Group A points table.


A couple of months ago, Sri Lanka stunned India in the 2024 Asia Cup final to lift the coveted trophy for the very first time. However, the current Sri Lankan team in UAE is all but mathematically eliminated from the tournament’s semifinals race. With huge defeats at the hands of Australia and Sri Lanka, Chamari Athapaththu and co. will be hoping to repeat their Asia Cup final heroics against the ‘Women in Blue’.


18:12 (IST) Oct 09

Hello and welcome to the live blog of the India Vs Sri Lanka Women's T20 World Cup match. This is a must-win encounter for the Indian side, as they need to win their remaining two matches to sneak into the semis. Their last match is against Australia, but today, they face off against Chamari Athapaththu's Sri Lanka side.


The same Sri Lanka who defeated them in Asia Cup finals, a couple of months ago. Will Sri Lanka cause an upset once again? We'll find out....
