WI-W vs SL-W, 2nd ODI, Match Prediction: Who will win today’s game between West Indies Women and Sri Lanka Women?

A high-stakes battle awaits at the National Cricket Stadium in Grenada as the West Indies Women look to level the series against a confident Sri Lankan side. After a nail-biting 10-run victory in the series opener, the visitors are just one win away from a historic series clinching on Caribbean soil.

In the first ODI, Sri Lanka proved they are no longer just a one-woman show. Despite a modest contribution from captain , the middle order stepped up with gritty half-centuries from Hasini Perera and Harshitha Samarawickrama.

For the West Indies, it was a story of so close, yet so far. A brilliant 89-run partnership between the legendary Stafanie Taylor and youngster Jannillea Glasgow put them in the driver’s seat, but a late-order collapse, triggered by the guile of veteran spinner Inoka Ranaweera, left them 10 runs short.

National Cricket Stadium Pitch Report

The surface at the National Cricket Stadium in Grenada is expected to be a balanced yet demanding track that evolves as the game progresses. In the morning, the humidity often provides early moisture, offering seamers some zip and movement with the new ball. However, as the sun bakes the surface, the pitch tends to slow down significantly. Historically, this venue has been a spinner’s paradise in the middle overs, highlighted by spinners taking 12 wickets in the previous match. While the outfield is fast, rewarding aggressive stroke-makers, batters will need to show patience as the ball begins to grip and turn.
