India Women will face West Indies Women in an important ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 warm-up match at Sophia Gardens, Cardiff, on June 8, 2026, with play scheduled to begin at 2:30 PM IST. This preparatory fixture gives both teams a valuable opportunity to fine-tune their strategies, test combinations, and resolve key selection questions before the main tournament gets underway on June 12.
India enter the contest eager to sharpen their preparations after a 2-1 T20I series loss against England. Consequently, the team management will focus on strengthening the batting structure and evaluating bowling resources ahead of the global event. In addition, players such as Radha Yadav and Bharti Fulmali could receive valuable game time as they look to reinforce their credentials for a regular place in the playing XI.
Led by Harmanpreet Kaur, India’s squad features a strong blend of experience and youth. The batting unit includes Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Yastika Bhatia, and Richa Ghosh, while Deepti Sharma, Shreyanka Patil, Radha Yadav, Renuka Singh, Kranti Gaud, Nandani Sharma, Arundhati Reddy, Shree Charani, and Bharti Fulmali provide balance across departments.
Meanwhile, West Indies Women arrive with growing confidence after an encouraging Tri-Series campaign in Ireland. The return of experienced campaigners Deandra Dottin and Stafanie Taylor has further strengthened a squad already led by the dynamic Hayley Matthews. Moreover, players such as Shemaine Campbelle, Chinelle Henry, Afy Fletcher, Karishma Ramharack, Qiana Joseph, Aaliyah Alleyne, Shawnisha Hector, Mandy Mangru, Zaida James, Ashmini Munisar, Jahzara Claxton, and Jannillea Glasgow add depth and versatility to the Caribbean lineup.
