India Women vs Sri Lanka Women, 5th T20I: Check live streaming, probable playing 11, pitch report, weather update

India Women will aim to complete a clean sweep against Sri Lanka Women when the two teams face off in the fifth and final T20I on Tuesday, capping a dominant series for the hosts. Sri Lanka, meanwhile, will look to avoid a 5-0 loss by exploiting India’s lapses in the field as both sides continue preparations for the T20 World Cup, now less than six months away.

India have sealed the series 4-0 with consistent performances, restricting Sri Lanka to low totals in the first three matches and chasing targets with ease. The fourth T20I saw Sri Lanka show improved intent while chasing, pushing India harder than before, but the hosts still came out on top to post their highest T20I total of the series. Despite their control, India’s fielding has been an area of concern, with several catches dropped across matches.

Sri Lanka enter the final game with some confidence after contributions from batters beyond Chamari Athapaththu in the previous match. Openers showed intent early, and late-order runs helped narrow the margin. The visitors will hope to convert starts into bigger scores and capitalise on any chances offered in the field.
