India vs Sri Lanka Highlights, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: India got off to a flying start in the ICC Women’s World Cup, overcoming Sri Lanka by 59 runs via the DLS method in a rain-affected opener on Tuesday. Amanjot Kaur (57 off 56) and Deepti Sharma (53 off 53) stitched a vital 103-run stand for the seventh wicket, helping India post 269/8 in a 47-over-a-side match. Chasing 271 under the DLS system, Sri Lanka managed 211 all out in 45.4 overs, with Deepti Sharma claiming 3/54, setting the tone for India’s campaign. ...Read More

For the women in blue, success has always just evaded them when it comes to winning the biggest trophies. India have been competitive at the ICC Women's ODI World Cup, and came closest in 2017, only to see a trophy snatched from their fingertips. Now, the tournament comes back to the subcontinent, 12 years on from when India last hosted this tournament. 2013 was a year to forget for the team: could 2025 be the one that can never be forgotten?

After a lacklustre outing at the previous Women's World Cup, India have put in extreme amounts of preparation ahead of their chance to host this tournament. They won't be playing at the premium venues in the country — a fact that has rightly earned a lot of criticism from many quarters, as the women's game continues to be less invested in and pushed forward far less to the cricket-crazy masses than the men's team. But they do get to visit regions of the country that have equally never been in the limelight for the sport: they begin their campaign in the north-east, in Guwahati, and the hope will be that as the tournament builds up, as will the confidence and the hype around this team.

India have played in 38 Women's ODIs since the conclusion of the previous World Cup, and that has included 14 crucial matches this year, in which they have given a very strong account of themselves. This isn't a perfect team by any means, as there remain plenty of question marks and areas for improvement – but it has proven itself to be a brave, scrappy team, one with plenty of quality scattered across that is capable of making a difference. Smriti Manadhana enters the tournament in the form of her life and will want to have an impact, as will names such as Jemimah Rodrigues and Richa Ghosh, with a bowling unit that will want to be effective against the top teams.

They run into Sri Lanka, their co-hosts for the tournament, captained by the all-round sensation Chamari Athapaththu. This is a team that has upset India in big matches in the recent past, such as the Asia Cup, and also has aspirations of reaching the knockout stages of this tournament with an impressive showing.

It won't be an easy run through this tournament: with only 8 teams, it is a situation in which every result counts. Can the women in blue script destiny starting with a win tonight?

Sep 30, 2025, 19:58:08 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: 269/8 at the end of their 47

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Deepti Sharma falls on the last ball, but it's a sensational effort after being 6 down for 124 earlier in the innings. Her fifty alongside Amanjot's crucial for a strong score, and Sneh Rana's cameo ensures they have plenty to bowl at.

Sep 30, 2025, 19:52:42 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Sensational from Sneh Rana! Making this innings really count late on. India looking at 270 now, after a big six, a wide, and a misfield help her out. Great cameo.

Sep 30, 2025, 19:35:17 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Stunning outfield catch to remove Amanjot after fifty!

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: WHAT A GRAB THAT IS! And could be so important, Amanjot was looking good. She swings, nearly picks the gap perfectly, but Vishmi – making her a name as a fielder today – hustles across to put in a solid dive and hold onto it with two hands. Really good catch! 227/7 with 3.3 to play.

Sep 30, 2025, 19:26:31 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Back underway — only one more over lost in this innings

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Thankfully just a short break, game down to a 47-over contest now though. Any further breaks will keep losing overs, but an opportunity for India to set a big total here.

Sep 30, 2025, 19:15:08 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Rain comes at a bad time as India had the momentum!

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Uh oh, not great for India this! Deepti and Amanjot put in the hard yards without really looking to explode, but the rain has arrived, meaning that finish is delayed. India only going at 5.25 and six wickets down, remember. If this pair even gets 5 more overs in that total will look a lot more daunting. Anxious eye in the sky.

Sep 30, 2025, 18:55:08 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: 13-run over! Good from this pair

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: 50 partnership up in quick time for this pair, and it's with some explosive batting! Amanjot pounces on an overpitched one, and then Deepti sweeps one down leg. Good batting, India recovering well.

Sep 30, 2025, 18:46:37 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Amanjot dropped! 164/6 after 33

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Amanjot Kaur gets lucky! India have been batting well through this little period, but it was nearly disaster as she top edges on. Sri Lanka, who have been great in the field, sloppy here as they drop a simple chance.

15 overs to play, India will want another 100-odd from here.

Sep 30, 2025, 18:30:41 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Deepti Sharma holds the key now

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Strong start to her innings from Deepti Sharma, counter-punching just to get the score moving again. She has the support of Amanjot, who we know can clear the fence, but the bulk of responsibility will be needed to be taken by Deepti.

Sep 30, 2025, 18:14:38 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: D Athapaththu gets involved! India six down now!

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: The state of this match has changed so much in just 12 deliveries! The fourth wicket in that span of time as the Lankan skipper sends Richa Ghosh packing. It's very, very wide, Richa tries to smack it, but doesn't have balance and rather spoons it to point. That's another soft wicket and Sri Lanka are in total control now!

Sep 30, 2025, 18:08:37 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: AND ANOTHER ONE! HARMANPREET HAS TO WALK

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: HUGE MOMENT! Harmanpreet Kaur needed to stick in to stabilise after this 2 wicket over, but she also falls in the same one! Tries to guide Ranaweera to third, but just guides it to the wicketkeeper off the face of her bat. India in massive massive trouble!

Sep 30, 2025, 18:06:50 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: TWO IN TWO BALLS! JEMIMAH OUT FOR A GOLDEN DUCK

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Timber! Dream spinner's wicket, that one. Jemimah is beaten in the flight and guile, she is tempted into going forward but never reaches the pitch. She takes a poke at it but it turns sharply past her outside edge and she is bowled! Sensational bowling and Sri Lanka are on top now!

Deepti in for the hat-trick ball… fends it off.

Sep 30, 2025, 18:04:12 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Deol dismissed just as she was getting a move on!

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Harleen was finally beginning to attack, picking up a pair of boundaries in the last over, but Ranaweera slows it up and picks up her second wicket! It's a soft dismissal, Harleen has to stretch for it, and chips it right to cover.

Sep 30, 2025, 17:55:06 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Harmanpreet ensuring runs tick along, 100 up

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Better from Harmanpreet, not allowing the same pressure to keep building. Need SL to start scratching heads a little, and with batting to come, playing some attacking cricket is the way to do that.

Sep 30, 2025, 17:39:01 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: SECOND WICKET! Pratika Rawal has to depart

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: THERE'S THE WICKET! India were finally trying to push their scoring, and Pratika pays the price for having to play catch-up. Hits it hard but straight to deep mid-wicket, it's a flat one which also needed two chances to be taken cleanly. It's a good catch as Vishmi reacts well on the second attempt.

Pratika out for 37. Opening for SL!

Sep 30, 2025, 17:34:56 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Some momentum now, 22 in the last 3 overs

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Better from India. Happy to back themselves to take a couple more risks. About to reach the 20 over mark with wickets in hand.

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Much more of that needed. Been a while since a boundary, and that's the first six of the innings. Times it beautifully over mid-off, elevates and finds the distance for the maximum.

Sep 30, 2025, 17:12:00 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Just 5 runs in the 3 overs since restart

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Slow, slow going. This isn't a bad scoring track, but India are being passive, even with the field out.

Sep 30, 2025, 17:04:43 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: We start again

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Welcome back. Been a delay of over 75 minutes. Means Harleen and Pratika need to get set again.

Sep 30, 2025, 16:01:41 IST

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: India's tentative start means pressure on to score big through middle

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: India do rely on Smriti to do the brunt of the scoring through the first portion of the innings, with Pritika, Harleen, and Harman all being relatively tame before they are set. Someone will need to put their hand up in the next 10 overs and say okay, I'm going to take a risk or two here.

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: So India going along nicely but without any really big overs.

India vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, Women’s World Cup 2025, IND-W vs SL-W: Couple of lovely boundaries from the bat of Harleen Deol already. How she performs at 3 to stitch together the top and middle orders will be key, but at this moment her role is to build this innings in Mandhana's absence.
