The ICC Women's T20 World Cup, 2024, has got off to a good start. Defending champions Australia Women will begin their campaign as they take on Sri Lanka Women in the 6th match. Sri Lanka Women have gotten off to a poor start, losing their opening game against Pakistan Women, and they will look to put up a good fight against the Australians.
Australia Women has won all seven games they have played against Sri Lanka Women in the past. The World Champions have lost only once in the last 10 games and are in superb form. The Sri Lankan batting looked like shambles in the last game, and it will be interesting to see if the team can recover from the slump and do well.

Alyssa Healy's team will look to make a grand start as they defend the title again. The team has dominated this tournament with only 8 losses in 44 games in the last eight editions. They have a strong batting lineup and a bowling attack that can rip apart any opposition. Healy would like a strong show from his players and take a lead on the points table.
Beth Mooney and Alyssa Healy are the best opening pair in the world, and the team expects a strong start from them. In the middle order, the team wants to see partnerships between Ellyse Perry, Ashleigh Gardner, and Tahila McGrath. Annabel Sutherland, Phoebe Litchfield, and Grace Harris add to the team's batting firepower, making it strong.
Sophie Molineux and Alana King will look to use the new ball and strike early to put the Sri Lankan side under pressure. Georgia Wareham and Ashleigh Gardner are known for good spells in the middle overs, and the team expects them to excel. Grace Harris and Annabel Sutherland complete a strong bowling attack.
One of the best players of spin in the Australian batting lineup, Mooney averages 33.40 against off-spinners and over 40 against leg break and left arm spinners. With the conditions highly in favour of spinners and a spin heavy Sri Lankan bowling lineup where she averages 82 amassing 246 runs in 6 matches.

Chamari Athapaththu's team has had a poor start in the tournament. The team went down by 31 runs against Pakistan Women in their first game. The batting lineup performed badly as they failed to chase a low total. They have never defeated Australia in the past, and Athapaththu must lead from the front and take her side to a win.
Chamari Athapaththu and Vishmi Gunaratne are the key batters for the team, and they must get them off to a flying start. Harshitha Samarawickrama, Hasini Perera, and Kavisha Dilhari failed in the last game and must do well here. The team expects runs from Anushka Sanjeewani and Nilakshi de Silva in the lower middle order.
The bowling attack will be up against the best batters in the world. Udeshika Prabodhani and Sugandika Kumari must get the early breakthroughs to put the Aussies under pressure. Inoshi Priyadharshani and Chamari Athapaththu will have to keep the scoring under check. Sachini Nisansala and Kavisha Dilhari must do well as support bowlers.
Sri Lanka captain Athapaththu needs a big innings after failing to score against Pakistan. The left-hander averages 44.50 against Australia with 267 runs in 7 matches, including one century. We back her to come good in this fixture and score over 22.5 runs.

There are predictions for clear skies over Sharjah. It will be a flat surface that allows batters to play freely. There isn't much on this track for the fast bowlers, but spinners can trouble the batters. The average first innings score is around 140 runs, and the side batting first would like 160 runs on the board.

High TurnSharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah, is a high scoring with the small size of the ground and fast outfield helping batters score quick runs. There is absolutely nothing on this surface for fast bowlers. Spinners have enjoyed a good record here as the ball can turn sharply and stop on the batters.
The two matches played at Sharjah have been low scoring and the surface has favoured the bowlers with spinners coming into play big time. The last two T20I matches between these two teams have been low scoring and we predict another low scoring affair and the total match score to be under 262.5 runs.
Chasing scores at this venue is easy as the wicket doesn't change its character in the second half. We have seen big run chases at the venue, and sides struggle to defend totals. The side winning the toss will prefer to bowl first and restrict the opposition to a small total.
Sri Lanka Women struggled against a lowly-ranked Pakistani side in the last game. They face a massive challenge in this contest and need to pull up their socks against the best side in the world. Australia Women have an unblemished record against Sri Lanka and the best batting lineup in the world. Based on their current form, the team starts favorites in this game.
