Sri Lanka registered a convincing win over Thailand in the first game of ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier 2024 played today (25th April) at Tolerance Oval in Abu Dhabi.

After winning the toss, Sri Lanka skipper Chamari Athapaththu opted to bat first but they didn’t have the greatest of starts as both the opening batters Athapaththu and Vishmi Gunaratne were back in the dressing room inside first 9 overs.
