After winning the T20I series, Pakistan Women will take on Sri Lanka Women in a three-match ODI series. This will be the first time that the Women in Green will be playing the Women’s Championship ODIs on their home turf and they will hope to make the best use of the familiar conditions.

The first encounter of the three-match series will be played on June 1 (Wednesday) and the visitors after losing the T20I series by a margin of 3-0, will want to make a comeback and try to win the ODI series. It must be noted that Pakistan and Sri Lanka last faced each other way back in 2018.

Pitch Report

The strip at Southend Stadium is assisting the slow bowlers and the captain winning the toss might want to have a bat first and post a competitive total to defend it later. A score of between 220 and 240 can be a winning total on that wicket. As it is a day game, the dew factor is not expected to play a part.
