After a series loss, England Women will go at it against Sri Lanka Women in the ODI series of the tour. The game will be held at the Riverside Ground, Chester-le-Street on September 9. The match will begin from 3:30 PM IST.

England Women vs Sri Lanka Women Chances of Winning

The Sri Lanka Women tour of England started with a win for hosts. However, SL-W made a massive comeback to post two victories on the trot to win the series by 2-1. Their bowlers were impeccable in the last fixture that eventually led to their victory.

England Women had two back-to-back batting upsets in the last two T20Is of the series and went on to lose it by 2-1. However, the team will be much stronger with the return of Nat Sciver-Brunt and Tammy Beaumont in the ODI series. There will not be much changes in the squad going into the forthcoming game.

England Women have dominated Sri Lanka Women in the format. SL-W have an explosive batting order but their longevity remains uncertain. Hence, battling in the 50 over format will give an edge to ENG-W with more experience. ENG-W are 2nd in the ICC rankings whereas SL-W sit at the 8th spot. Although SL-W are in good form, ENG-W are a stronger team on paper.

England Women vs Sri Lanka Women Betting Tips

Sri Lanka Women displayed an outstanding performance with the ball in the recent game, with Athapaththu making crucial contributions both as a bowler and with the bat. Their impressive showing has undoubtedly boosted their confidence, which will prove valuable as they prepare to face the formidable England team.

England Women, known for their strong batting and bowling line-up, faced some unfortunate circumstances in the previous match. Players like Maia Bouchier, Nat Sciver-Brunt, and Tammy Beaumont are expected to lead the charge in scoring runs, while the bowling attack will be spearheaded by Sarah Glenn, Kate Cross, and Danielle Gibson. Despite the setback in the last game, England remains a formidable opponent.

England Women vs Sri Lanka Women Toss Prediction

The pitch at Riverside Ground, Chester-le-Street is known as a balanced track. So far, 19 ODI games have been played here, where 8 matches were won by the team batting first and 11 won by the chasing side. Batting first will be an ideal option to choose as this wicket gets slower in the second innings which tends to make the batters commit mistakes. Run scoring becomes difficult on this pitch when the spinners take control in the middle overs.

Sri Lanka Women are having the best time after a historic series win earlier. Athapaththu is in red hot form with the bat as well as the ball.

Hence, they will have experience playing in the 1st ODI. English bowlers have been ineffective and leaked too many runs to SL-W in the previous games.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: England Women

Sri Lanka's women achieved a historic milestone with their first-ever white-ball series victory over England, clinching a remarkable seven-wicket triumph in the third T20 international at Derby. Chamari Athapaththu was the standout performer, making her mark with both bat and ball, claiming figures of 3-21 and then smashing 44 runs from 28 balls to secure the 2-1 series win.

England, who previously defeated world champions Australia in the T20 series as part of the women's Ashes in July, struggled to a total of just 116 runs from 19 overs. In pursuit of this modest target, the Sri Lankan team got off to a strong start. Athapaththu's outstanding innings, featuring five boundaries and two towering sixes, led the way. Anushka Sanjeewani (20) and Harshitha Samarawickrama (26) also made valuable contributions in the middle order. Despite losing a few wickets, Sri Lanka comfortably reached the target in the 17th over, sealing a convincing seven-wicket victory.

England Women's bowlers found it challenging to break partnerships and take wickets, with Sarah Glenn being the most successful bowler, claiming 2 wickets for 23 runs in her four overs. However, the other bowlers struggled to make a significant impact.

In their previous encounter, a three-game ODI series in 2019, England Women dominated by winning all three matches, securing a 3-0 series victory. While the Sri Lankan squad has shown promise, the hosts hold an advantage with their greater experience in the conditions.
