SL-L vs SA-L Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's Road Safety World Series Match - Mar 19th, 2021
Semifinal 2 of the 2020-21 Road Safety World Series has Sri Lanka Legends taking on the South Africa Legends in Raipur on Friday.
The Sri Lankan Legends have been the team to beat with five wins in six league games. Their opener, Tillakaratne Dilshan, has been on fire with 232 runs and 12 wickets to show for his efforts.
With the likes of Upul Tharanga and Russell Arnold also chipping in with handy contributions, it is hard to look past the Sri Lankans in this fixture.
However, the South African Legends have found their feet in this competition. Although they started the series slowly, their openers Andrew Puttick and Morne van Wyk have done well to hand South Africa a semi-final berth.
Their bowlers are also in good form, with Tshabalala and Ntini picking up nine wickets between them. All in all, the South Africans have a well balanced side that is capable of upsetting the Sri Lankans in this encounter.
Although Dilshan and co. have momentum and form on their side, they are in for a stern test against a well-oiled South Africa Legends side.
Nevertheless, we should be in for an entertaining game of cricket as either side eyes a place in the all-important final of the 2020-21 Road Safety World Series.

Pitch Report
A high-scoring game is on the cards, with over 400 runs being scored in the previous game in Raipur. There isn't much help on offer for the bowlers, although change of pace is a viable ploy as the match progresses.
Wickets in hand will be key for either side, with both sides likely to target a score above 180 if they were to bat first.
Having said that, both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss, although the conditions should remain the same throughout the match.
