SL-W vs BAN-W, Live Streaming: The war for the last semifinal spot in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 intensifies as Sri Lanka Women take on Bangladesh Women today at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai.
SL-W vs BAN-W, Live Streaming: Match Preview
Even though they have not won a single match as yet, Sri Lanka still hang on to mathematical hope of qualification. They are depending on an overwhelming win today and positive results elsewhere. Their captain Chamari Athapaththu is still their greatest weapon, but inconsistency has proven to be their Achilles’ heel.
Bangladesh, however, have impressed with their grit and discipline in the tournament. They surprised Pakistan in their opening match and pushed both England and South Africa hard. Even though they got thrashed by Australia, overall their performance indicates improvement and confidence.
History, however, is not in favor of the Tigresses as they have not yet beaten Sri Lanka in a Women’s ODI.

SL-W vs BAN-W, Live Streaming: Match Prediction
With the stakes involved, Sri Lanka will be under immense pressure to deliver. If Athapaththu gets going, the Islanders might chalk up a massive score and earn their inaugural win of the tournament. But Bangladesh’s bowling lineup, spearheaded by Marufa Akter and Rabeya Khan, has impressed in holding back bigger teams.
Sri Lanka’s experience might tip the scales slightly in their direction, but Bangladesh’s momentum and audacity might make it a cliff-hanger.
Prediction: Sri Lanka Women to win by a small margin, but Bangladesh to challenge them until the last moment.
