Sri Lanka Women (SL W) take on Pakistan Women (PAK W) in the second ODI in the three-match series on Saturday, July 25. Once again, the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium in Hambantota will host this clash.

Chamari Athapaththu and Co. lost the first ODI by five wickets. They were restricted to 210/9 in the first innings after winning the toss. In reply, Pakistan chased the target in just 43 overs with five wickets to spare.
