The five-match T20I series between India Women and Sri Lanka Women reaches its conclusion tomorrow, December 30, 2025. With India holding a dominant 4-0 lead, they are on the verge of a historic clean sweep at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram.
India have been relentless throughout this series. Fresh off their ODI World Cup title last month, the “Women in Blue” have translated that momentum into the shortest format. In the 4th T20I, India posted their highest-ever T20I total of 221/2, powered by a record-breaking 162-run opening stand between (80) and Shafali Verma (79). Mandhana also crossed the milestone of 10,000 international runs during that innings, becoming only the second Indian woman to do so.
Sri Lanka, led by Chamari Athapaththu, showed significant grit in the previous match, scoring 191/6—their own highest-ever T20I total—but still fell 30 runs short. While the Lankan middle order has struggled for consistency, the performance of young guns like Vishmi Gunaratne and the experience of Inoka Ranaweera will be crucial if they hope to salvage a win and avoid a whitewash.

Greenfield International Stadium Pitch Report
The Greenfield International Stadium has historically been a low-scoring, bowling-friendly venue, but the 4th T20I proved that if batters apply themselves, the runs are there for the taking. Pacers usually find movement early with the new ball under lights. However, as the ball gets older, the pitch tends to dry out, offering significant grip and turn for spinners like and Sneh Rana. While the last match saw over 400 runs, the 3rd T20I at this same venue saw Sri Lanka restricted to just 112. Expect a surface that is slightly more balanced for the finale. Dew is expected to play a massive role in the second innings. The captain winning the toss is expected to bowl first.
