The Australia women will be taking on the Sri Lanka Women in the fifth match of the Women's T20 World Cup 2024. This match will be played at the iconic Sharjah Cricket Stadium in the UAE on October 5 at 3:30 PM IST.

The Australian team under the leadership of Alyssa Healy will eye a solid start to their title defence run. Notably, if Australia manage to win the World Cup this time then it will be their fourth consecutive World T20 title. They will also have seven World T20 titles under their belt in nine editions if they defend the title successfully. 

On the other hand, Sri Lanka will be looking to bounce back after their defeat in the first match against Pakistan. Notably, the Chamari Athapaththu-led side failed chase down 117 runs in their first match. They will be looking to sort out their problems in the batting department and put on a better display in this game.

How will the Sharjah Stadium's Pitch Behave?

The pitch at the Sharjah cricket stadium will be difficult for the batters. The slow nature of the wicket will make shot making difficult. The spinners will decide the fate of the game. As it is a day game, one can expect that track to get slower in the second innings of the match.

The team batting first has won both the games that have been played here so far in this tournament. As this is a day game, it is expected that batting will get tougher with the progress of the match and hence the captain winning the toss will look to bat first.
