Preview:

The 2019 Women’s Emerging Asia Cup will kick start with India Emerging Women and Bangladesh Emerging Women clashing off at the Thurstan Ground in Colombo. The India team toured Bangladesh as India A earlier this month as a warm-up for this tournament. The India team was quite dominant throughout the tour winning all the four completed matches.

The Indian Women whitewashed the hosts in the 3-match One-Day series where they won all matches by big margins. The first two matches of the subsequent Twenty20 series got washed out without a toss. The Indian team won the final game to finish the tour unbeaten. The team led by Devika Vaidya are considered to be favourites considering their Asia Cup domination at the senior level.

Weather Condition/Report:

Scattered thunderstorm with rain is expected for the tournament opener. The weather forecast is the same throughout the day and will be tough to get a full game.

Pitch Condition/Report:

The nature of Thurstan Grounds in Colombo mainly depends on the teams facing off. If India bat first at this venue, they are likely to post 250. If Bangladesh walk to bat first, they could be rolled inside 100. Since there will be an early start, the pacers are likely to enjoy help from the pitch. The tracks here will get dry as the day progresses and is likely to assist the spin bowlers.
