Sri Lanka and USA are set to lock horns in the ICC World Cup Qualifier 2023 on Thursday, June 15. The Bulawayo Athletic Club in Bulawayo will host the contest.
Sri Lanka, led by Dasun Shanaka, will go into the match after beating the Netherlands by three wickets in their previous game. However, they will want to be more clinical going forward.
After being asked to chase a modest score of 215, Sri Lanka found themselves at 96 for the loss of five wickets. However, skipper Shanaka stepped up, scored 67 runs off 52 balls and took them past the finish line with 12.5 overs left.
The USA, on the other hand, lost to Andrew Balbirnie’s Ireland by five wickets in their previous match. Aaron Jones scored a sparkling 89 off 87 balls and helped USA post 312 on the board.
Saiteja Mukkamalla scored 44 runs off 33 balls with one four and three sixes. But Harry Tector’s unbeaten 149 runs off 123 balls didn’t allow the USA to secure victory at the Bulawayo Athletic Club.
