Women’s World Cup 2025: Match 25, Sri Lanka Women vs Pakistan Women Match Prediction – Who will win today’s match between SL W vs PAK W?

The ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 will continue with Sri Lanka Women (SL W) taking on Pakistan Women (PAK W) in Match No. 25 of the tournament at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Friday, October 24. This contest holds immense importance for Sri Lanka, who are still mathematically in contention for a semi-final berth, while Pakistan has already been eliminated after a poor campaign.

Sri Lanka currently sits on four points with a net run rate of negative 1.035. To stay alive in the tournament, Chamari Athapaththu-led team must beat Pakistan convincingly and hope for a string of favourable results, including India losing both their remaining matches against New Zealand and Bangladesh, and the White Ferns falling to England.

Even then, qualification would depend on net run rate. The Lankans have had a mixed tournament, registering one win, three losses, and two no-results. Their latest outing saw them edge past Bangladesh by seven runs. Meanwhile, Pakistan’s campaign has been disappointing as they are winless after six matches, with four defeats and two no-results, and a poor net run rate of negative 2.651.

SL W vs PAK W Match Details

R.Premadasa Stadium, Colombo Pitch Report

Batting first has generally proven to be the more rewarding option at the R. Premadasa Stadium. However, with rain in the forecast, teams might look to chase, especially if the DLS method comes into play. If weather interruptions stay away, spinners are expected to play a key role, as the surface tends to offer good grip and turn as the game progresses.
