India Women vs Sri Lanka Women, 4th T20I: Live streaming, playing 11, pitch and weather update

India head into the fourth Women’s T20I against Sri Lanka with the series already in hand and momentum firmly on their side. The hosts lead the five-match contest 3–0 and will look to stretch their dominance when the teams meet again at Thiruvananthapuram on Sunday.

IND-W vs SL-W Match Prediction

Led by Harmanpreet Kaur, India have barely been tested so far. Chasing in each of the first three games, they wrapped up every pursuit inside 15 overs, losing no more than three wickets on any occasion. Sri Lanka, meanwhile, have not managed to set a target beyond 129, underlining the gap between the two sides in this series.

India’s bowlers have been the driving force behind that control. Off-spinner Deepti Sharma picked up four wickets across the opening two matches, while pacer Renuka Singh Thakur matched that tally in a single outing at the Greenfield Stadium on Friday. Notably, no Sri Lankan batter has crossed the 40-run mark in the series so far.


Winning the toss has helped India exploit conditions with reduced dew, but the execution has been ruthless. The team has also rotated players, testing combinations with an eye on the 2026 T20 World Cup, without any dip in standards. Renuka later said the focus is on sustaining performance levels after recent ICC success.

With the bat, India have been equally assured. Shafali Verma and Jemimah Rodrigues have both struck half-centuries, ensuring chases remain straightforward.

IND-W vs SL-W Pitch Report and Weather Forecast Update

Thiruvananthapuram is expected to see mostly clear conditions. Forecasts suggest light cloud cover, negligible rain threat, temperatures around 24°C, and winds close to 17 km/h.

The Greenfield International Stadium surface generally offers good value for shots early on, especially under lights. As the game progresses, spinners tend to find more grip.

It is said to be batting-friendly at the start, though spinners might be effective in the second half. At Greenfield, a score in the 150–160 range can thus be competitive.

However, in the third T20I, Sri Lanka were limited to 112, which India chased comfortably in just over 13 overs, highlighting how well the hosts have adapted to the pitch.

Head-to-Head Record Between India Women and Sri Lanka Women

The head-to-head record is heavily skewed in India’s favour. According to data from ESPNcricinfo, out of 29 matches played since 2009, India have won 23, while Sri Lanka have managed just five victories, with one match ending in no result.
