March 12, Colombo (LNW): An opportunity has been organised for the Sri Lankan under-19 women’s cricket team to meet the under-19 teams of England and Australia, who have the highest level of playing style in the world women’s cricket arena, in Sri Lanka.
Providing international competition experience to the team as well as the under-19 team, as well as the organisation of national-level competitive matches, the spread of women’s cricket has also increased and as another rich step in the programme, the organisation of England, Australia and Sri Lanka under-19 women’s cricket tournament in Sri Lanka. It can be called being.
The tournament includes 6 T20 matches and 3 ODI matches.
The first T20 match starting on March 28 is scheduled to start at Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium, Hambantota.
The one-day matches will be held at the Galle International Stadium on the 5th, 6th and 7th of April.
Sri Lanka’s T20 matches will be played on March 28 (vs. Australia), March 30 (vs. England), April 01 (vs. Australia) and April 03 (vs. England).
Sri Lanka’s ODIs will be held on April 05 (vs. Australia) and April 09. (with England).
Most likely the women’s national team will also leave for a foreign tour by this date, so it is possible that the Sri Lankan team, which won the Trilateral Under-19 Championship held in Bangladesh last time, will not be represented in this tournament.
Because of the performances seen in the National Women’s Cricket League matches held in and after, it is possible to think that the under-19 team can join the national team.
