Should be a close game.

Theekshana fit is big news for SL. Is this happening in Hyderabad too?

I know Sri Lanka beat Pakistan recently. But just don’t see Sri Lanka doing that well this tournament their batting is a big worry they don’t have much fire power. Plus Hasaranga is a big loss I would of had him amongst the top wicket takers this tournament

Yeah its in hyderabad

 

[CricAddict]

SL with Hasaranga would have given any team a scare in these conditions. But right now, they look a bit weak. Wellalage hasn't been as great a replacement as expected. Pathirana seems found out too. Still, Theekshana back should make the side strong.

 

[Silver Silva]

Chameera has also been a big miss for SL , I think it's time to drop Pathirana for Kumara

You'd think the loser of this game was in big trouble. If either of these 2 are to qualify, the points on offer today are crucial.

Sri Lanka win the toss and bat (slightly questionable tactic in the D/N game you'd think if dew becomes a factor).

dont think dew is a thing in a non coastal city

 

[Socerer 01]

or at least not as big of a deal

 

[ashley bach]

Kusal has looked awful in both his outings to date.

This game will be better than the other one

Think it’s the right call they bowled first last game and got smoked out the park and the game was over in the first innings. If they post a good total here and have scoreboard pressure then it will give them a lot of confidence. They have started well already.

Good platform boys , Nissanka goes for a decent 50 , need Mendis to kick on and get a big one.

Yeah, it's going well. Although, I'm coming to the conclusion that the Pakistani bowling (having seen them in the warm up against Aus too) might not be very good.

Mendis

 

[Socerer 01]

[number11]
