Pre-Match Analysis:

Sri Lanka Women will be playing their 1st ODI after a gap of 9 long months. They lost to India in their previous series 3-0. Despite having talents they aren’t really gone well at the highest level. It’s going to be a challenging series as they are facing Bangladesh who have bolstered their side with young and experienced players.

Bangladesh Women won the Tour match against Sri Lanka Cricket President’s XI by 27 runs which gave them plenty of boosts to do well on this tour. It’s going to be their first assignment of the year. They mainly stick to playing T20Is as they have less featured in 50 over games in the last few years. Their recent records in this format are not fascinating as they lost to New Zealand in their previous series 1-0 and were knocked out in the group stages itself in the World Cup last year. The onus is on skipper Nigar Sultana to bring confidence back to the players.
