India Women vs Sri Lanka Women T20I Series 2025: Full Schedule, Squads & Venues

The upcoming IND-W vs SL-W T20 series 2025 is scheduled as a five-match encounter, kicking off on 21st December. The opening two matches will be held at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam on 21 and 23 December, after which the action shifts to the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram for the remaining three fixtures on 26, 28, and 30 December.

This series represents the first international outing for the Indian women’s team after their historic victory at the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup. Initially, India had a series against Bangladesh during this period, but political developments led to its postponement, and the Sri Lanka series was arranged to fill the slot.

This series carries added strategic value as it serves as an early preparation platform for the 2026 ICC Women’s T20 World Cup. Both teams have some of the best women cricketers in their squads. The Indian side might experiment with squad combinations and provide opportunities for bench players to gain exposure ahead of the global event.

Visakhapatnam has previously hosted international women’s matches, including games in the recent World Cup, while Thiruvananthapuram will host senior-level women’s international cricket for the first time.
