It's not going to be pretty, admits Beaumont

October 11, 2025

CRICKET Tammy Beaumont believes England have the tools to conquer spinning conditions on a used pitch in Colombo but has warned: “It's not going to look pretty.”

Charlotte Edwards’ side started the Women’s World Cup with back-to-back wins over South Africa and Bangladesh in Guwahati and have now swapped India for the Sri Lankan capital for their next two games.

They take on the co-hosts on their own turf on Saturday and are expecting an even more dramatic turn than they have already seen as they prepare to play on a pitch that is being used for its third game in just 10 days.
