BAN vs SL Info: 

  • Mushfiqur Rahim boasts an impressive record of nine centuries in ODI cricket. At 36 years old, he serves as both a wicketkeeper and batter, making him a prime candidate to lead Bangladesh’s run-scoring efforts against Sri Lanka. On the bowling front, Taskin Ahmed has demonstrated his prowess with 14 wickets in his last seven ODI innings. Consequently, he stands as a solid contender to secure the title of Bangladesh’s highest wicket-taker in the upcoming Thursday match.
  • On the Sri Lankan side, Pathum Nissanka holds a notable average of 40.77 from 34 ODI innings. As a right-handed opener, he emerges as our favored choice to spearhead Sri Lanka’s run-scoring endeavors against Bangladesh. Furthermore, the talented pace bowler Matheesha Pathirana left a strong impression during the 2023 Indian Premier League, making him a promising selection to emerge as Sri Lanka’s top wicket-taker in this Group B encounter.
  • Recognized as a pivotal player across all formats, Pathum Nissanka is highly recommended to exceed the 29.5-run mark in this upcoming clash.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

Thunderstorms are a potential weather concern in the vicinity before the game, possibly leading to a delayed start. The area is expected to maintain high humidity levels; however, the afternoon and evening forecast indicates dry conditions. 

Pitch Report of BAN vs SL:

The pitch in Pallekele has always been very spin friendly and we expect the same in this game. Pace bowlers should be able to get the ball skid on from the surface.

Toss Prediction: 

Anticipating a rise in humidity as the match unfolds, it’s likely that both teams will prefer to opt for fielding first in this encounter.

BAN vs SL Team NEWS: 

BAN Team News: 

The lead-up to the tournament has been intricate for Bangladesh. Initially, Tamim Iqbal stepped down from the captaincy and retired from international cricket, only to be persuaded to rejoin the team last month. Unfortunately, he sustained a back injury subsequently, rendering him unavailable for the tournament. In addition to this, Litton Das will also miss the Asia Cup 2023 due to viral fever. To fill the void, wicketkeeper-batsman Anamul Haque has been brought in as a replacement.

SL Team News: 

Sri Lanka faces a setback in this game due to a grade two thigh strain sidelining their bowling all-rounder and spinner, Wanindu Hasaranga, throughout the group stage. Furthermore, injuries have also ruled out Dushmantha Chameera, Dilshan Madushanka, and Lahiru Kumara from the tournament, leaving the team less than its strongest for this match.

However, our overall favor lies with Sri Lanka, as we believe their batting and bowling prowess will secure them the victory.
