The Indian women’s cricket team is currently in Sri Lanka for a crucial Sri Lanka Tri-Series 2025 that also features South Africa — and it’s shaping up to be a great prelude to this year’s ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup. With the tournament just around the corner, this series feels like a dress rehearsal, and if India’s recent performances are any indication, they look well on track.
But there’s still one last hurdle to clear: the final. India are set to take on the hosts, Sri Lanka, in what promises to be a tightly-contested showdown. The road to the final has been mostly smooth for India — they won three out of their four matches in the group stage, including two solid victories over South Africa by 23 runs and 15 runs respectively. Their contests against Sri Lanka, though, have been more of a mixed bag.
In their first encounter, India were dominant, cruising to a 9-wicket win with nearly 10 overs to spare. But Sri Lanka hit back in the second match, edging India out with a 3-wicket victory and reminding everyone that they can’t be taken lightly on their own turf.
So now, with the series tied at 1-1 between India and Sri Lanka, the final becomes a proper decider. More than just a trophy is on the line — a win here could inject a massive dose of confidence heading into the ICC Women's World Cup 2025. Neither India nor Sri Lanka have won the global title yet, but this tri-series might just be the momentum booster that pushes one of them closer to making that dream come true.

Match: INDW vs SLW Final Match of Sri Lanka Women Tri Series
Date: 11 May 2025
Time: 10 Am
Stadium: R. Premadasa International Cricket Stadium
Location: Colombo, Sri Lanka
The R. Premadasa International Cricket Stadium in Colombo, Sri Lanka offers a balanced pitch that challenges both batsmen and bowlers. Early in the match, the surface favors the batsmen, allowing them to play aggressive strokes with good bounce and a solid foundation. A first-innings score between 230-240 runs is generally considered competitive. However, as the game progresses, the pitch tends to slow down, providing assistance to spinners, which can make chasing more difficult. Teams chasing targets around 260-270 runs generally have a fighting chance, but anything above 280-200 can put them under pressure, especially with the slow nature of the pitch in the second innings. Overall, it’s a dynamic surface where both batting and bowling strategies need to adapt to the conditions, and a score around 270+ is often a strong target for the chasing side.

Test cricket is the ultimate examination of a cricketer's skill, endurance, and mental toughness. But for captains, it is something more: a delicate balance of strategy, man-management, and the ability to inspire a team over five grueling days. Leadership in Test cricket can define careers, and over the decades, some captains have truly stood out for their exceptional records and impact on the game.
When you think of India’s golden era of Test cricket in the 21st century, it’s impossible to leave out the name Virat Kohli. Kohli redefined India’s attitude in the longest format of the game. From a young, aggressive lad stepping into a heavyweight team to leading it to the pinnacle of the ICC rankings, Kohli’s Test journey has been one for the ages. "Virat Kohli’s Greatest Test Milestones" is more than just a list of stats; it's a tribute to a player who wore his heart on his sleeve and changed Indian cricket forever.
Virat Kohli has announced his retirement from Test cricket after a remarkable 14-year journey. In an emotional Instagram post, he reflected on the personal impact of the format and expressed deep gratitude. Kohli retires as one of India’s greatest Test players, leaving behind a legacy of passion, discipline, and unmatched commitment to the game.
Smriti Mandhana delivered a record-breaking performance in the Sri Lanka Tri-Series Final, scoring the highest by an Indian woman in an international final. She smashed the most sixes in a WODI by an Indian woman and equaled the record for most fours by a left-hander, marking her as the standout star of the match.
Rohit Sharma has officially bid farewell to Test cricket, drawing the curtains on a remarkable red-ball career that took its time to blossom but ultimately left a lasting legacy. For years, critics doubted whether his white-ball brilliance would ever translate to the longer format. But when it did, it was worth the wait. So, here’s a look at Rohit Sharma’s top five Test knocks.
