Sri Lanka to host England ahead of inaugural Women’s Champions Trophy

Ahead of the upcoming ICC Women's Champions Trophy, the England women's team is scheduled to travel to Sri Lanka for a split white-ball series consisting of three T20 internationals and three One Day Internationals. The T20 fixtures will take place in Kandy throughout early February, while the subsequent ODI matches are set for March in Dambulla.

Meanwhile, the inaugural edition of the Women's Champions Trophy itself has been awarded to India, where matches will be hosted at Mumbai's Cricket Club of India and the Vadodara International Cricket Stadium from February 14 to 28, following a shift from original plans. England enters the bilateral buildup with strong recent form, having previously defeated Ireland in a clean sweep under captain Charlie Dean and secured a convincing victory over Sri Lanka during their prior meeting at the T20 World Cup behind a standout century from Danni Wyatt-Hodge.
