India Women Take 2-0 Series Lead with Dominating Performance Against Sri Lanka
Visakhapatnam, India – The Indian Women’s Cricket Team secured a commanding victory against Sri Lanka Women in the second T20I held today in Visakhapatnam, taking a 2-0 lead in the five-match series. India’s bowlers were instrumental in restricting Sri Lanka to a modest total of 128/9 in their 20 overs.
After winning the toss and electing to bowl, India’s bowlers displayed discipline and control. Vaishnavi Sharma and Sri Charani led the attack, each claiming two wickets. Sneha Rana and Kranti Gaud also picked up a wicket each while maintaining pressure on the Sri Lankan batting lineup.
Sri Lanka’s innings saw contributions from Harshitha Samarawickrama (33), Chamari Athapaththu (31), and Hasini Perera (22), but they struggled to build substantial partnerships against the tight Indian bowling attack.
In response, India started strong with Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma. Mandhana was dismissed for 14, but Verma continued to dominate, propelling India to 68/1 after six overs.
