18:00 Local Time, 12:30 GMT: India looked a touch rusty in the field after a month-long break, but they still had enough quality with both bat and ball to take a 1-0 lead in the series. Sri Lanka never quite found the right tempo with the bat and eventually finished with a below-par total of 121. India’s bowlers deserve much of the credit for setting up the win, with Deepti Sharma leading the way, while debutant Vaishnavi Sharma impressed despite not getting a wicket. In the chase, Jemimah Rodrigues anchored the innings brilliantly with an unbeaten 69, guiding India to a comfortable victory. Sri Lanka will need to significantly raise their game across all three departments if they are to challenge this confident Indian side in home conditions. Hopefully, we’re in for a much closer contest today. Toss and teams coming up..
