Preview

Hello and welcome to another match of an ICC event and this is the 22nd match of the series and the match is all set to take off by today by 7:30 PM IST. All matches of this ICC T20 event will be telecast on Star Sports Network and Disney+Hotstar (VIP Subscription Required).

Australia after winning over West Indies earlier in this T20 event might be very happy because West Indies is one of the greatest teams in T20I in the world Cup however the chase also was so hard on that pitch but Marcus Stoinis was the man who gave a breakthrough against West Indies for Australia.

On the other hand, Sri Lanka’s players are doing quite well in the World Cup series also they have won the first match against Bangladesh in Sharjah and saw them chasing very well fully, however, Sri Lanka haven’t played that many of matches against Australia in any format within last three years but Sri Lanka is in a very good form for sure and they also gonna give a competitive level match against Australia.

Pitch Report – AUS vs SL

The pitch is quite good for both departments when it bat first or second because its a sunny day and also a day match so batting first should be a good call in the pitch however the bowlers might gonna face some trouble because the outfield may be big but its also very fast as well, but the spinners on other hand will slow up the runs in the middle overs however set batters won’t think twice to make an impact against them as well. The average score on this pitch is like 155, 160, 171 and should be defendable.
