Women’s Twenty20 Internationals

Match scheduled to begin at 14:00 local time (07:00 GMT | 12:00 PST | 12:30 IST | 13:00 BDT)

Regular and welcome visitors to Thailand for various ACC women’s tournaments over the past decade, Nepal qualified for the Women’s Asia Cup T20 on account of their second place in the ICC Asia Women’s World Cup Qualifier held in Hong Kong. Nepal narrowly lost both their matches against Thailand but were still able to finish second in the competition by defeating China by four wickets in their last match. Nepal will be looking to turn the tables on hosts Thailand and also to test themselves against the strongest women’s sides in Asia.

Runners up to India in the first four editions of the Women’s Asia Cup, Sri Lanka did not perform up to those standards in the ICC Women’s Championship where they finished eighth out of eight with only two wins in 21 matches. They have recently played a series against England on home soil but were unable to repeat the famous victory they had against the same opposition in the 2013 Women’s World Cup. Sri Lanka have also enjoyed success against both India and Pakistan in the Women’s World T20, and they can be a match for any side on their day.
