The final match of the Women's Tri-Nation ODI series was played on Sunday, with India and Sri Lanka facing off against each other. India skipper Harmanpreet Kaur won the toss and chose to bat first. With a magnificent performance throughout the tournament, India made it to the final sitting atop the points table after having won three out of four matches.

Meanwhile, Sri Lanka qualified for the final in the second position of the standings with two wins and two losses. Preparation and mentality of both teams for this fiery final are extremely sharp.

There was a major change in the Indian squad in this match. Medium pacer Kranti Gowda has been given a chance in international cricket for the very first time. She took the place of Shuchi Upadhyay. Not only is this a huge opportunity for her, but it is also a chance for the Indian squad to try out a new talent.

In the meanwhile, there have been some drastic changes in the Sri Lanka squad.Kavisha Dilhari, the best all-rounder in the team is unfit for the final due to sickness. Inoka Ranabira and Piumi Wathsala replaced her. Manudi Nanayakkara and Inoshi Fernando were left out. It will be fun to see how this change goes with the team.

India's XI:

Harmanpreet Kaur (captain), Pratika Rawal, Smriti Mandhana, Harleen Deol, Jemimah Rodrigues, Deepti Sharma, Richa Ghosh (wicketkeeper), Amanjot Kaur, Sree Charani, Sneh Rana and Kranti Gowda.

Sri Lankan XI:

Chamari Atapattu (captain), Hasini Perera, Harshita Samarawickrama, Bishmi Gunaratne, Piumi Wathsala, Nilakshika Silva, Anushka Sanjeevani (wicketkeeper), Deomi Bihanga, Malki Madara, Sugandika Kumari and Inoka Ranawira.

Both the teams have performed well in the recent matches of the competition. The consistency of Indian top-order batsmen and the bowling of Sri Lanka will play a crucial role in the final. Sports enthusiasts are also awaiting the outcome of the match.
