Sri Lanka dethroned defending champions India to clinch their first-ever Women's T20 Asia Cup title on Sunday.

A packed crowd in Dambulla witnessed history as the hosts cruised to an eight-wicket victory.

Half-centuries from openers Chamari Athapaththu and Harshitha Samarawickrama, coupled with Kavisha Dilhari's all-round brilliance, proved instrumental in Sri Lanka's triumph.

With an impressive 14 wins from 17 T20Is this year, Sri Lanka enters the upcoming T20 World Cup in October brimming with confidence and national pride.

MTV Channel (Private) Limited holds the ICC cricket rights in Sri Lanka up until the end of 2025.
