The Indian women's team will take on Sri Lanka in a five-match T20I series in Visakhapatnam and Trivandrum from December 21 to 30, the BCCI said on Friday, days after a scheduled rubber against Bangladesh was postponed due to political tensions between the two countries.
This will be the first assignment for the 'Women in Blue' after their ODI World Cup-winning campaign earlier this year.
"The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announces the schedule for the upcoming 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 BCCI said in a statement.
As per the original schedule, the Indian women's team was supposed to play a home series against Bangladesh during the same time.
The Sri Lankans will be playing a T20I bilateral series in India for the first time since 2016, which the hosts won 3-0.
India last played a T20I series in July this year, when they registered a historic win in England. India won that series, their first in England, 3-2.
Schedule:
1st T20I: December 21, Visakhapatnam
2nd T20I: December 23, Visakhapatnam
3rd T20I: December 26, Thiruvananthapuram
4th T20I: December 28, Thiruvananthapuram
5th T20I: December 30, Thiruvananthapuram.
