Australia and Sri Lanka will play in the 22nd match of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 at Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai. We will cover AUS vs SL Dream11 Prediction, Probable Playing 11, and Fantasy Cricket Tips.
Australia:
Australia started off the tournament on a high note by winning their first match and are currently at the 3rd position on Group 1’s ICC T20 World Cup points table.
David Warner scored a few runs but played more balls, and skipper Finch got out for a duck in the last match. Even Mitchell Marsh and Glenn Maxwell were slow in their approach to scoring runs. Steven Smith steadied the innings, and in the end, Marcus Stoinis’s quick innings helped Australia win the match.
Every bowler managed to get at least one wicket in the last game. Mitchell Starc, Hazlewood, and Adam Zampa picked up two wickets each. Cummins and Maxwell got one wicket.
Australia would be willing to win the next match and move up on the points table.
Sri Lanka:
Sri Lanka is unbeaten so far in this World Cup as they won all the matches and are currently at the 2nd position on Group 2’s ICC T20 World Cup points table.
Kusal Perera’s poor form continues as he got out for one run in the previous game, but Nissanka has played a couple of good innings. Charith Asalanka, at No.3, batted brilliantly, scoring unbeaten 80 runs along with Bhanuka Rajapaksa, who scored a quick fifty and helped SL win the match. Avishka Fernando is yet to play a big inning in the middle-order.
The bowlers who were in brilliant form failed to make an impact in the previous game. Lahiru Kumara continues to pick up wickets consistently. Binura Fernando and Karunaratne got one wicket each. The young all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranaga went wicketless in the last match.
Sri Lanka’s performance in the World Cup has come across as a surprise to everyone, and they have a chance of qualifying for the Semi-Finals if they win a couple of more matches.
