AUSW vs SLW
Match & Dream 11 Prediction, Betting Tips, Playing 11, Pitch Report and Analysis - Oct 05, 2019
Australia women have won their T20 series against Sri Lanka women by a 3-0 margin and absolutely crushed them in every match. The only time there was any semblance of competition was when Chamari Athapaththu scored her brilliant century.
The third and final t20 saw the Aussies score 226 in 20 overs and then end up winning by 132 runs (https://www.onlinecricketbetting.net/cricket-betting-tips/ausw-vs-slw-02-oct-2019/). It was the kind of performance which leaves a scar for a long time to come.
Now, with the ODI starting, is there anything that the Sri Lanka women can do differently?
Australia Women vs Sri Lanka women 1st ODI is going to be played at the Allan Border Field, Brisbane on the 5th of October 2019.
AUSW vs SLW Team Previews
Australia Women
We are sure that the Aussie women are going to lining up to have a bat against this Sri Lankan lineup. Beth Mooney started the series off with a brilliant century and Alyssa Healy ended with the highest t20 score of all time in the third T20. Her 148 not out came off just 61 balls and included 19 boundaries and seven sixes.
It was destruction of the purest sense.
We do believe that this Australian women’s side is so far superior to the Sri Lankans that the contest is not really fair. Take any two batters out of this lineup and we would back them to get past fifty.
The ODI’s are only going to increase this gulf between the sides even more.
Players like Rachel Haynes, Meg Lanning, Ellyse Perry, and Nicola Carey have had almost nothing to do in the T20 series. They would be itching for an opportunity to try and show their talents at the international level as well but it is unlikely they will be needed at all.
Ellyse Perry, Megan Schutt, Jess Jonassen, and Georgia Wareham are going to lead a bowling attack which should have no trouble bowling out the Sri Lankans for embarrassingly low scores.
Boredom is the biggest opponent of Australia right now.

Sri Lanka Women
It is difficult to see who Sri Lanka can end up giving the Australians something to work for in this series. The T20 format is the one where the most amount of uncertainty is possible and even a single player can win you a match.
As the overs increase, though, more quality players are needed to sustain a high level of the game.
That is just not going to be possible for the Sri Lankan women.
They are going to hope that Chamari Athapaththu can score a lot of runs in every single match and get some support from the other batters. That is not only unlikely but also not a true assessment of the team's talents.
Players like Yasoda Mendis, Anushka Sanjeewani, and Harshitha Madavi are decent players but we don’t think they are going to last very long against the quality Aussie bowling attack.
Now, the bowling of the Sri Lankans is nothing special. None of the bowlers have seemed likely to pick up a single wicket through superior skill. The idea seems to be to bore the Australian batters after they have had their fill.
We think it will be a surprise if the Sri Lanka bowlers end up getting more than five wickets in any match in this series.
