Pitch Report
As seen in the previous game at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, the bowlers are expected to enjoy the conditions, with the ball keeping a touch low. Runscoring is relatively easy in the powerplay overs, and the batters will look to make full use of the fielding restrictions early on. As the match progresses, the pitch may slow down, making for an intriguing contest in the middle overs. Both teams will look to bat first upon winning the toss, with 150-160 being a good total at the venue.
Today’s SL vs BAN Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Kusal Perera: Kusal Perera struck some form in his last outing against the Netherlands, playing a cameo at the top of the order. With the southpaw looking to continue his fine form for the Sri Lankans, he is a must-have in your SL vs BAN Dream11 fantasy team ahead of Nurul Hasan.
Batter
Mohammad Naim: Mohammad Naim has already shown what he is capable of doing with a fifty against Oman. Equally comfortable against pace and spin, Naim should get some runs under his belt in the powerplay phase.
All-rounder
Wanindu Hasaranga: Wanindu Hasaranga hasn't disappointed the Sri Lankans with a fifty and a three-fer to show for his efforts in the tournament so far. Given the form that the Sri Lankan all-rounder is in at the moment, he is bound to be a popular pick in this SL vs BAN Dream11 fantasy contest.
Bowler
Mustafizur Rahman: Mustafizur Rahman has also done well with his clever variations and death bowling ability to price important wickets in the middle and towards the end of an innings. With the Sharjah pitch favoring his style of bowling, Rahman should pick up a wicket or two against Sri Lanka.
