The 15th ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 match will be played between New Zealand women and Sri Lanka women. The game will be played at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in Dubai on 12th October 2024 at 3:30 PM IST.
New Zealand are placed at number 4 in the points table after 1 win and a loss in two games. They defeated India in the first game by 58 runs but then lost their last match against Australia by 60 runs. They’ve looked in good form as a team but there is room for improvement with the bat. Bowling is their strength and they’ll look to win this game and almost confirm their place in the semi-finals.
On the other hand, Sri Lanka women have lost all the 3 games they’ve played and are already out of the semi-finals race. Their batters have failed miserably and that’s the main reason for their poor performance. Their bowlers have been in decent form. Sri Lanka women will look to win this game and end their campaign on a positive note.
