Zimbabwe will take on Sri Lanka in Super Sixes Match 4 of ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifiers 2023 on Sunday, July 2, at 12:30 pm IST.

Zimbabwe's fielding turned into a standout, as they capitalized on half baked-possibilities and maintained their form all through the game. Their ability to transform chances into dismissals proved essential. In comparison, Oman neglected some potential possibilities, mainly a total that proved too much for them in the end.
Overall, Zimbabwe's disciplined bowling and sharp fielding performed a pivotal role in securing the win. They now lead onto their second match with more confidence than ever before.
On the other hand, Sri Lanka faced sizable challenges early on, thanks to an outstanding new-ball spell of Logan van Beek. However, Dhananjaya de Silva displayed extraordinary composure, resilience, and maturity as he guided Sri Lanka past the 200 mark.
The spinners, Theekshana and Hasaranga, played a crucial role by making use of pressure and limiting the Netherlands' batting lineup. Despite the Netherlands' preliminary success with the ball, the flurry of wickets they misplaced in their very own innings, in the end, cost them their fixture. Sri Lanka will be relieved to have popped out on the pinnacle in a demanding contest.
