HEAD TO HEAD

TEAMS PREVIEW

Sri Lanka Preview

Charith Asalanka will be happy with his team's performance in the league stage. They defeated Afghanistan by 6 wickets in the last game and have maintained a clean record in the league stage. They had defeated Bangladesh earlier in the league stage, and the team would like to draw inspiration from that win and add to their winning streak.  

Kusal Mendis played a match-winning knock in the last game, and he will aim to deliver a strong start with in-form Pathum Nissanka. Kamil Mishara, Kusal Perera, and Charith Asalanka will look to add runs in the middle order. The team expects contributions from Dasun Shanaka, Kamindu Mendis, and Wanindu Hasaranga in the lower middle order.   

The bowling attack took a hit in the last game. Dushmantha Chameera and Nuwan Thushara must strike early in the game to put the team in a strong position. Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga must do well in the middle overs to put the team in a strong position. Dasun Shanaka must deliver a good show as the 5th bowler. 

Sri Lanka Predicted Playing XI:

Charith Asalanka (c), Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis (wk), Kamil Mishara, Kusal Perera, Dasun Shanaka, Kamindu Mendis, Wanindu Hasaranga, Maheesh Theekshana, Dushmantha Chameera, Nuwan Thushara

Sri Lanka Actual Playing XI:

Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis, Kamil Mishara, Kusal Perera, Dasun Shanaka, Charith Asalanka, Kamindu Mendis, Wanidu Hasaranga, Dunith Wellalage, Dushmantha Chameera, Nuwan Thushara

Bangladesh Preview

Litton Das and his men put up a good show in their last league game against Afghanistan. In a must-win game, they defeated the Afghans by 8 runs to book a berth in the Super Fours. They will face a tough challenge against the Sri Lankans after losing to them in the league stage. Das would like his team to avenge the loss and open their doors for a place in the final.  

Saif Hassan and Tanzid Hasan put up a 63-run stand in the last game, and the team expects them to play a strong platform. Litton Das is the star batter in this lineup, and he will look to build partnerships with Towhid Hridoy and Shamim Hossain in the middle order. The side will expect quick runs in the lower middle order from Jaker Ali, Nurul Hasan, and Nasum Ahmed.  

Nasum Ahmed bowled brilliantly in the last game, and he will look to make early inroads into the Sri Lankan lineup with Taskin Ahmed. Mustafizur Rahman will be confident after his good show in the last game and must check the scoring in the middle overs with Rishad Hossain. Shamim Hossain and Saif Hassan add variety to the attack and do well. 

Bangladesh Predicted Playing XI:

Litton Das (c & wk), Tanzid Hasan Tamim, Saif Hassan, Towhid Hridoy, Jaker Ali, Shamim Hossain, Nurul Hasan, Nasum Ahmed, Rishad Hossain, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed

Bangladesh Actual Playing XI:

Mahedi Hasan, Shoriful Islam, Tanzid Hasan, Litton Das, Saif Hassan, Towhid Hridoy, Jaker Ali, Shamim Hossain, Nasum Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

The conditions in Dubai will be hot and humid, and bowlers are likely to find the conditions challenging. We expect to see batsmen scoring runs as easily as the ball comes onto the bat. The average first-innings score is 162 runs, and the side batting first in this game shall have a victory target of 180 runs.

SL vs BAN Pitch Report

Dubai International Cricket Stadium has a large outfield, but the wicket is flat, allowing batsmen to score a lot of runs. We have seen big scores and chases at this venue. Fast bowlers find the conditions difficult at this venue and must use their variations well to succeed. Spinners have enjoyed the conditions and picked many wickets.

Toss: To Bowl

Toss has been a decider at this venue, and most teams have preferred to chase. We have seen big run chases, and the team chasing the score has won the last eight out of ten games at this venue. The side winning the toss here would have no hesitation in bowing first.
