PAK-W vs SL-W Prediction: Sri Lanka Women are in search of two points to keep their semifinal hopes alive.
The next game in the ICC Women's World Cup 2025 is a virtually dead rubber, as Pakistan Women have already been eliminated from the competition. They will be in action as they will lock horns with Sri Lanka Women. This game will be live from R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on October 24 (Friday), starting at 3 PM IST.
