In a nail-biting semifinal match of the Women’s T20 Asia Cup 2024, Sri Lanka Women are up against Pakistan Women at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium. The excitement surrounding the game has cricket fans on the edge of their seats.

Sri Lanka won the toss and opted to bowl first, a decision that added to the anticipation of how the match would unfold. With a strong team lineup, both sides were keen to secure a place in the final.
