Okay, I’ve extracted the key details from the provided text. Here’s a summary focusing on the match preview between India and Sri Lanka:
Key Points:
* Match Focus: preview of the India vs. Sri Lanka ODI match.
* Sri Lanka Key Player: veteran left-arm seamer Udeshika Prabodhani is crucial for Sri Lanka with the new ball. Her swing and control are valuable, but match rustiness is a concern. She last played international cricket at the 2024 T20 world Cup, and hasn’t featured in an ODI since August 2024.
* India Team News: Amanjot Kaur could return to the XI after recovering from a back injury.This means either Sneh Rana or Radha Yadav will likely miss out. The entire squad is fit.
* India Probable XI:
- Smriti Mandhana
- Pratika Rawal
- Harleen Deol
- Harmanpreet Kaur (CAPT)
- Jemimah Rodrigues
- Richa GHosh (WK)
- Deepti Sharma
- Amanjot Kaur/Radha Yadav
- sneh Rana
- Kranti Goud
- Renuka singh
* Sri Lanka Expected Lineup: Hasini Perera is expected to open with Chamari Athapaththu. Vishmi Gunaratne is likely to bat at No. 4. With Prabodhani back, only one of Achini Kulasuriya and Madara will play.
* Pitch and Conditions: The weather in Guwahati is expected to be muggy with temperatures in the low 30s°C around the start of play.
