Sharjah (UAE): The six-time champions Australia Women's team is all set to square off against the Asian Champions Sri Lanka to begin their ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 campaign at the iconic Sharjah Cricket Stadium here on Saturday, October 5, 2024. Sri Lanka have already began their campaign, but had to face a shocking defeat in their first match of the tournament against Pakistan on Thursday.
Defending champions Australia, aiming for their seventh title, will bring their firepower as they face Sri Lanka, a team hoping to bounce back after a shaky start in the tournament. The Kangaroos will be on high in confidence, riding high on the back of commanding wins in warm-up games.
