England women are set to tour Sri Lanka for a three-match T20I series from February 1 to 5 early next year, with the assignment set to serve as an important preparatory opportunity for both teams ahead of the inaugural Women's Champions Trophy, which will be held in the T20 format in India from February 14 to 28.

England's tour will not conclude with the T20Is only because both teams are also scheduled to meet in a three-match ODI series in March, which will be played after the conclusion of the Champions Trophy. The ODIs will be played in Dambulla from March 4 to 8. Their last meeting in T20Is came during the Women’s T20I World Cup 2026, where England emerged with an 87-run win.

Fixtures:

1st February - 1st T20I - Kandy

2nd February - 2nd T20I - Kandy

5th February - 3rd T20I - Kandy

4th March - 1st ODI - Dambulla

6th March - 2nd ODI - Dambulla

8th March - 3rd ODI - Dambulla
