England and Sri Lanka will play in the 29th match of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 at Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah. We will cover ENG vs SL Dream11 Prediction, Probable Playing 11, and Fantasy Cricket Tips.
England:
England has won all three matches and is currently at the 1st position on Group 1’s ICC T20 World Cup 2021 points table.
Jason Roy scored a good number of runs, and Jos Buttler played a big inning, scoring 71* runs from just 32 balls. Dawid Malan has been batting at a lower strike rate, but Jonny Bairstow played quickly and helped finish the match. The batting depth of England has not been tested yet in this tournament.
The bowlers have been the critical factor in every win. Tymal Mills has been picking up the wickets consistently; Chris Jordan and Chris Woakes got three and two wickets, respectively, in the last match. Liam Livingstone and Adil Rashid have also performed well with the ball.
England has qualified for the Semi-Finals, and they would be playing this match to seal the first position in the group.
Sri Lanka:
Sri Lanka has lost two matches in a row and is currently at the 4th position on Group 1’s ICC T20 World Cup points table.
Kusal Perera has been in poor form, but Nissanka batted well, scoring 72 runs in the last match. At No.3, Charith Asalanka has provided good support, and Bhanunka Rajapaksa played a couple of good innings. The remaining players have struggled a lot and have been a disadvantage to the team.
The bowlers made a good comeback but couldn’t win the last match. Hasaranga picked up a hattrick, and Chameera got two wickets in the last match. Lahiru Kumara and Maheesh Theekshana have been wicketless for the last two matches.
Sri Lanka is on the verge of being eliminated from the race for the Semi-Finals.
