🏏ICC T20I Men's W C 2024: Match 15: Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh, Dallas🏏 - Page 2

Key Players to Watch in Sri Lanka

Wanindu Hasaranga

Sri Lanka will rely on their skipper heavily for this game. He bowls in the middle overs where he is supposed to face the in-form middle order of Bangladesh. If he manages to do what he usually does against them, Sri Lanka will feel inches closer to a win in this game.

Kusal Mendis

Kusal Mendis is the highest scorer for Sri Lanka so far in 2024. Given that Bangladesh’s batting order has been clumsy, Sri Lanka might feel putting up a good total on the board does 90% of the job for them to win. And it does not need to put more emphasis on how much Sri Lanka would rely on their most in-form and productive batter to deliver the goods this time.

Matheesha Pathirana

Matheesha Pathirana has been in great form with 11 wickets in his last 6 games and coming from a wonderful IPL campaign. He was also the best bowler for Sri Lanka in the game against South Africa. He can give his team an early advantage against Bangladesh’s clumsy top order. If he does his job well, Sri Lanka have a real winning chance.

In the 2024 ICC T20 Men’s World Cup tournament, both Bangladesh and Sri Lanka have similar kinds of issues with their respective teams. However, the recent forms and history between these two sides give Sri Lanka the edge. As a result, Sri Lanka will enter the BAN vs SL T20I match as favorites in this enticing rivalry of cricket.

Last year, a significant controversy arose during the ODI World Cup when Shakib Al Hasan-led Bangladesh appealed for a timed-out dismissal against Angelo Mathews. Mathews took longer than usual to face his first ball after arriving at the crease.

Despite the cricket world's surprise, the umpire ruled Mathews out according to ICC rules, and Bangladesh won the match by three wickets. This incident sparked a debate on the 'Spirit of Cricket'.

Sri Lanka lost their first match against South Africa by six wickets in New York. This upcoming match will be Bangladesh's first in the ninth edition of the T20 World Cup 2024.
