Bangladesh has announced the return of Sarmin Sultana to the ODI squad for the first time in seven years as they prepare for a three-match series against Sri Lanka at home. This series marks Bangladesh's first ODI action since a disappointing performance in the 2023 World Cup, where they won only one of their seven matches. Alongside Sultana, the squad includes offspinner Sultana Khatun and uncapped wicketkeeper-batter Juairiya Ferdous. The matches will take place in Rajshahi on April 20, 22, and 25, 2024. Historically, Sri Lanka has maintained an unbeaten record against Bangladesh in women's ODIs, having won all three of the five completed matches between the two teams. The last meeting was during the 2025 World Cup, where Sri Lanka triumphed by seven runs.
