(Photo by Morgan Hancock/NurPhoto via Getty Images) 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.

SL vs IND: India made these two big mistakes in the first ODI, if the same mistake happens again in the next match then it may have to lose the series
The second ODI match between India and Sri Lanka will be played on August 4. SL vs IND (Photo Source: Getty Images) The first match of the ODI series between Sri Lanka and India (SL vs IND) ended in a tie. The hosts batted first and scored 230 runs for the loss of 8 wickets. In response, Team India was all out for 230 runs in 47.5 overs while chasing the target. Charith Aslanka saved the match from going into India’s bag by dismissing Shivam Dubey and Arshdeep Singh in the 48th over. This match was nothing less than a nightmare for Rohit Sharma and company, as the team could not register a win despite being in control in both the innings. Let us tell you about the two mistakes due to which India had to face defeat, and also tell you about a masterstroke that the team did right during the first ODI. SL vs IND: Masterstroke – Rohit Sharma’s batting in the powerplay Indian captain Rohit Sharma was once again seen giving the team a stormy start. Rohit played his shots beautifully against both pace and spinner bowlers in the powerplay. Shubman Gill, batting from the other end, did not look anything special. There was a partnership of 75 runs between the two for the first wicket. Shubman Gill scored 16 runs in 35 balls, while Rohit Sharma played an innings of 58 runs in 47 balls with the help of 7 fours and 3 sixes. SL vs IND: India made these two mistakes during the first ODI match- 1. Shivam Dubey gave more strike to Mohammad Siraj When Mohammed Siraj came to bat, India needed 20 runs to win, and more than five overs were left. Shivam Dubey was completely set and it seemed that the team could easily win this game. Dubey and Siraj played 19 balls in their partnership, out of these balls, Siraj played 11 balls. Shivam Dubey is a good player of spin, he could have made things easier for the team by coming forward and playing more balls in this partnership, but he did not do anything like that. 2. Arshdeep Singh’s wrong shot When Arshdeep Singh came to bat, the team needed 1 run to win and had one wicket in hand. Arshdeep tried to play a slog-sweep shot, which was not the right shot against an off-spinner. Arshdeep could have easily taken a run by hitting the ball on any side of the ground, but he did not show his understanding and India had to face defeat.

Roach played his last Test match for West Indies against Australia at the Gabba in January at the beginning of the year. So now he will be seen playing in a two-match Test series against South Africa on Caribbean soil from August 7. The command of the West Indies cricket team against South Africa has been handed over to Craig Brathwaite, while wicketkeeper Joshua de Silva has been appointed the vice-captain of the team for the first time. In this Test series, regular vice-captain of the Test team Alzari Joseph has been rested, who had an average performance in the three-match Test series on the recent tour of England. Not only Joseph but the performance of the entire Caribbean team was disappointing on the England tour. England defeated West Indies 3-0 in a one-sided manner in the three-match home Test series. However, now forgetting this defeat, the Caribbean team will look to perform better in the two-match Test series against South Africa. The first Test match between the two teams will be played from 7 August to 11 August at Queen’s Park Oval Port of Spain, Trinidad, while the second Test match will be played from 15 August to 19 August at Providence Stadium, Guyana. 15-member Caribbean squad for the two-match Test series against South Africa: Craig Brathwaite (Captain), Joshua da Silva (Vice-Captain), Alick Athanase, Tevin Imlach, Michael Lewis, Casey Carty, Justin Greaves, Kavem Hodge, Jason Holder, Shamar Joseph, Gudakesh Moti, Kemar Roach, Jayden Seales, Jomel Warrican, Brian Charles.
