India, Sri Lanka, South Africa to play women’s ODI tri-series in April-May

Sri Lanka, India and South Africa are set to play a women’s ODI tri-series in April and May in Sri Lanka, SLC announced on Thursday. This tri-series was not originally part of the women’s Future Tours Programme (FTP).

All seven matches of the series will be day games, played at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo from April 27 to May 11. Each team will play the others twice – making it four matches per team – before the top two teams play the final. The series will start with hosts Sri Lanka taking on India.

The Sri Lanka team is currently on a white-ball tour of New Zealand while most of India’s players are participating in the WPL at home. Some South African players are also at the WPL. Until this tri-series was announced, South Africa’s next international assignment was due to be a tour of the West Indies in June.

This tri-series will give the three teams extra prep time in the lead up to the ODI World Cup in October this year in India.

Sri Lanka are currently the Asia Cup champions, while South Africa had reached the semi-finals of the last ODI World Cup, in 2022, after knocking India out in the league stages. India are, however, the highest ranked of the three at third – South Africa are fourth and Sri Lanka seventh – in the ICC ODI rankings.
