India and Bangladesh were scheduled to play three ODIs and as many T20Is against Bangladesh in December. Now, the BCCI has decided to utilise this vacant window with the five-match T20I series against another Asian side—Sri Lanka.
On Friday, the BCCI said in a media release, “BCCI announces the schedule for the upcoming IDFC FIRST Bank Women's T20I series as India hosts Sri Lanka for a five-match contest next month. The series will begin in Visakhapatnam before moving to Thiruvananthapuram for the remaining fixtures.”
The Indian women’s cricket team is gearing up for the upcoming ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 with a power-packed T20I series against Sri Lanka. The T20I series is all set to kick off on December 21 at the scenic Dr Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam.
India’s road to the T20 World Cup 2026 begins with Sri Lanka series
The Indian women’s selection committee is set to announce the Indian squad next week. After lifting the ODI World Cup at home, the Harmanpreet Kaur-led Indian women’s cricket team now carries sky-high expectations to repeat their glory in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 in June-July.
And then, they will travel to England in May-June for three T20Is and one Test. Well, India’s last T20 World Cup campaign in 2024 ended painfully in the first round, after tough losses to New Zealand and Australia.
But the team has rebuilt strongly since then, claiming back-to-back series wins over the West Indies (2–1) and England (3–2), and now they have won a historic World Cup as well.
Here’s the schedule for the India vs Sri Lanka T20I series:
December 23 – 2nd T20I at Visakhapatnam
December 28 – 4th T20I at Thiruvananthapuram
