Harmanpreet Kaur-led India are gearing up for the ICC Women's World Cup and they will lock horns with Chamari Athapaththu's Sri Lanka in the World Cup opener. This is the 13th edition of the Women's World Cup and India haven't been able to win the coveted trophy even once. They had qualified for the finals in 2017, but faltered against England.

India recently locked horns with Australia in a three-match ODI series which they lost 2-1, but they did perform very well. Smriti Mandhana has been in some great touch and she has also held on to her spot of being the number one ODI batter. India open their World Cup campaign at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati.
