Match Preview

Sri Lanka‘s campaign got off to a nightmare start with a crushing defeat against South Africa. Their batting display in New York was a major cause for concern, as they were bowled out for a mere 77 runs.

However, the bowlers showed fight, restricting a strong South African batting line-up. This match presents Sri Lanka with a golden opportunity to bounce back and revive their World Cup hopes.

Bangladesh, on the other hand, will be taking the field for the first time in the tournament. They will be keen to start their campaign on a positive note and avoid the fate that befell Sri Lanka.

While their recent form hasn’t been stellar, with just one win in their last five T20I encounters against Sri Lanka, Bangladesh has a reputation for upsetting big teams.

All in all, this match promises to be a high-pressure encounter for both teams. Sri Lanka desperately needs a win to stay alive in the tournament, while Bangladesh will be looking to make a strong statement in their opening match.
