30 balls since the last boundary for India.

Good news from Guwahati as the rain has cleared and play is set to resume at 4:35 PM IST.

Since 2024, India Women have emerged as the most dominant batting unit in W-ODIs.

They have registered the most 300-plus totals with 9, maintained the highest run rate at 5.9, and struck the most centuries with 14.

The covers are on in Guwahati as dark clouds move in, though there are some clearer patches in sight that raise hopes of a quick resumption.

India Women are 43/1, with Pratika Rawat and Harleen Deol steadying the innings after the early loss of Smriti Mandhana.

The duo will look to build on this platform once play resumes.

We are in Guwahati where the surface looks hard and tailor-made for batting, with side boundaries at 54m and 59m and a straight hit measuring 67m.

Expect plenty of runs on this ground, although pacers are finding some early assistance with the new ball, especially under the cloudy skies.

Sri Lanka’s decision to bowl first after winning the toss already looks a wise one. With overcast skies and plenty of swing on offer, the conditions heavily favour their bowlers.

Adding to that, dew is expected to play a part in the second innings, which could make batting easier later on and tilt the advantage further towards Sri Lanka.

India are underway with Smriti Mandhana finding the boundary twice early on, but her stay is cut short as Udeshika Prabodhani strikes to remove the opener.

That is a major blow for India at the top.

Weather conditions look better suited for Sri Lanka with heavy cloud cover hovering, giving their bowlers plenty of assistance in the opening stages.

The ball is showing plenty of movement.

A rather slow start here for the Indian team, maiden in the second and Sri Lanka giving it their all in the field.
