Malaysia Women lock horns with Sri Lanka Women in the sixth match of the Commonwealth Games Women's (CWG) Cricket Qualifiers 2022. Kinrara Academy Oval in Kuala Lumpur will host this fixture.

Sri Lanka, led by Chamari Athapaththu, have been on an absolute rampage in the ongoing edition of the championship. Having won both their games, the Islanders are sitting pretty on top of the points table. Sri Lanka's net run rate of 5.186 is the best among the participating teams.

They will go into the next game on the back of a thumping 109-run win over Scotland on Tuesday. To start with, skipper Athapaththu's 45-ball 86 propelled them to 182 for four in 20 overs. Thereafter, the Lankans bowled their opponents out for 73 in 12.1 overs.

Malaysia, led by Winifred Duraisingam, on the other hand, are yet to open their account in the tournament. Having lost both their games, they are placed fourth in the table with a poor net run rate of -3.029.

Malaysia lost to Bangladesh by eight wickets in their previous match. After being put in to bat first, Malaysia could only manage to score 49 for nine in their 20 overs, with just two of their batters getting into double digits. Bangladesh took only eight overs to track the target down. Nur Arianna Natsya picked up two wickets for Malaysia.
