Women's World Cup 2025: India Women vs Sri Lanka Women Match 1 Prediction

On Tuesday, September 30, at the Baraspara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati, India Women (IND W) will play Sri Lanka Women (SL W) in Match 1 of the ICC Women's World Cup 2025. All of Pakistan's matches will take place in Sri Lanka; however, the remainder of the event will be held in India. 

The squad captained by Harmanpreet Kaur performed admirably throughout the warm-up exercises. India recovered from a crushing 153-run loss to England by defeating New Zealand by four wickets. They will want to boost their confidence and get off to a strong start in the tournament. However, the team captained by Chamari Athapaththu had a poor performance in the warm-up games. Sri Lanka lost against Bangladesh by a slim margin, and the match against Pakistan ended without a result. For this game, the team would try to go past their previous performances and come up with something new.

Baraspara Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:

In general, the field of Guwahati's Barsapara Cricket Stadium provides a fair game. The new ball overs are vital because fast bowlers can get some movement and bounce early on. The surface gets better for batting as the game goes on, offering steady carry and conditions that are conducive to strokes. Because spinners may provide turn and grip in the middle and later stages, this track is useful for bowlers and batsmen alike.
