The second T20 International between India women and Sri Lanka women was washed out yesterday due to heavy showers. Electing to bowl here after the start of the match was delayed by half an hour due to rain, India made vital blows before the heavens opened up again, forcing the teams off the field and eventually leading to the wash out.

India reduced Sri Lanka to 49 for three in the 7.5 overs of play that was possible. India had won the first T20I by 13 runs on Wednesday. The third T20I of the five-match series will be played here today.
