Sri Lanka take on South Africa in a Women’s ODI World Cup 2025 league-stage clash on Friday, 17 October, at R. Premadasa International Cricket Stadium in Colombo. Get all the live streaming information for the RSA-W vs SL-W match right here.
South Africa have bounced back impressively after their opening loss to England, securing victories over New Zealand, India, and Bangladesh. Their consistent performances have propelled them into a comfortable third place in the overall standings, keeping their semi-final hopes very much alive.
Sri Lanka, in contrast, have struggled to find form in the tournament. They are yet to record a win, and with two of their matches abandoned due to rain, the Chamari Athapaththu-led side now faces a tough task to make it to the semi-finals. Currently, the co-hosts sit seventh in the points table with just two points from four matches.
A defeat against South Africa would effectively end Sri Lanka’s semi-final ambitions. To add to their woes, rain is forecast in Colombo on Friday, putting the fixture in jeopardy. Once again, the match could be at the mercy of the weather, leaving both teams, and fans, uncertain about the outcome.
