The Sri Lankan team recently won the Women’s Asia Cup 2024 trophy. They defeated India in the final of this important tournament. Now after winning the Women’s Asia Cup 2024, the Sri Lankan team will tour Ireland in which they have to play a two-match T20 and a three-match ODI series.

Sri Lanka has made just one change to its winning squad. Young player Kaushini Nuthyangana was dropped in the Women’s Asia Cup but has now been included back in the Sri Lankan squad for the upcoming Ireland tour. Kaushini Nuthyangana has been included in the squad in place of captain Chamari Atapattu. Chamari Atapattu is currently playing for Oval Invincibles in The Hundred Women’s 2024 tournament.

During the T20 series against Ireland, Chamari Atapattu will be participating in The Hundred Women’s 2024 tournament. However, she will return to the ODI series. The Sri Lankan team is currently at the fifth position in the ODI Championship points table with 20 points from 21 matches. If the team wins all three of its matches against Ireland, it will come to the second position in the points table. At the same time, the Ireland women’s team is at the tenth position in this points table and they have not won a single match in the currently being played cycle.

The Sri Lankan team would also like to give a chance to those players in the upcoming tour who were not included in the playing XI during the Women’s Asia Cup 2024. This is also because the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 is starting from October 3 in Bangladesh and the Sri Lankan team would also like to prepare its young players for this tournament. The two-match T20 series against Ireland will start from August 11. The first match will be played on August 11 while the second match will be on August 13. After this, the three-match ODI series will start from August 16.
