Today, we are in Colombo, where England start their two match adventure in Sri Lanka by playing the joint hosts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">It\u2019s been a pretty shiny start for England. Two wins from two games left them top of the table after the first couple of rounds \u2013 even if the victory against Bangladesh wasn\u2019t the most convincing performance \u2013 dragged over the line by Heather Knight and some catches that might have been.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Sri Lanka are yet to get going, losing to India in the opening game of the tournament while their game against Australia was washed out. But the ball spins a lot at Colombo, and England can come unstuck.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Play is due to start at 10.30am BST, though the grungy skies may push things back. Do join us.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:?subject=England v Sri Lanka: Women\u2019s Cricket World Cup \u2013 live&amp;body=https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/live\/2025\/oct\/11\/england-v-sri-lanka-womens-cricket-world-cup-live?CMP=share_btn_url&amp;page=with%3Ablock-68e761bb8f0871610d006f48#block-68e761bb8f0871610d006f48\" type=\"button\" class=\"dcr-1mulgdf\">Share<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Key events Show key events only Please turn on JavaScript to use this feature Preamble Good morning!
