Bangladesh Women in Sri Lanka refers to the bilateral cricket series contested between the national teams of Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. These fixtures represent senior international cricket rather than a domestic league structure with a permanent foundation or pyramid system. The competition encompasses One Day International (ODI) and Twenty20 International (T20I) matches played across different seasons, serving as a key component of the ICC Women's Championship pathway.
The most recent senior encounters occurred during the 2023 season, with Bangladesh touring Sri Lanka. The ODI series concluded with Sri Lanka winning 1–0, a result determined by points table standings despite the match wins being split. In the accompanying T20I series, Sri Lanka secured victory with a 2–1 aggregate score. These matches are part of a longer-standing rivalry where Sri Lanka maintains a significant advantage in T20Is, having won 13 of the 16 meetings played, while holding a 3–1 lead in ODIs excluding no-result matches.
Rankings reflect the competitive balance between the two sides. Sri Lanka sits sixth in the ODI standings with 82 points, closely followed by Bangladesh in seventh place with 81 points. The disparity is more pronounced in the T20I format, where Sri Lanka ranks seventh with 237 points compared to Bangladesh's tenth position with 199 points. Future fixtures include a scheduled T20I tour by Sri Lanka Women to Bangladesh in April 2026, continuing the cycle of bilateral engagement.
The series acts as a crucial benchmark for both nations within the global cricket hierarchy. While domestic structures exist separately—with Sri Lanka's Division One Tournament featuring around 26 clubs and Bangladesh's National Cricket League contested by divisions—the international series provides the primary stage for player development and ranking progression. The format ensures regular high-level competition, contributing to the growth of women's cricket in South Asia.
