In response, Warriorz captain Alyssa Healy tried to attack from the start to maintain the required run rate. However, she could not continue for long and was dismissed after scoring 24 off 17. Warriorz then lost the in-form Kiran Navgire and young Shweta Sehrawat in the next five balls, reducing them to 31/3 after 4.2 overs.

Tahila McGrath played a sensational knock of 90* off 50 balls, but did not receive much support from the other end. As a result, Warriorz lost the match by 42 runs. Jess Jonassen was the pick of the bowlers from UP Warriorz, finishing with figures of 3/43 in four overs.

It is really disheartening to play only 5 Tests a year; maybe, we will play more games this year: Mathews, Angelo

  Angelo Mathews, the former captain of Sri Lanka, has expressed his disappointment regarding the lack of Test matches played by the national team. He stated that the insufficient number of Tests being played will not be beneficial for Sri Lanka in the long run. Mathews highlighted his concern about Sri Lanka playing a Test match after a gap of more than six months, as it makes it difficult for the players to get accustomed to a particular routine before preparing for any series.
