There are no favourites in Group A’s neck-twisting competition, which is nearing its conclusion. Sri Lanka had one win and one loss in the two games, while New Zealand has defeated Australia and shared a point with Afghanistan. Sri Lanka is ranked second in the points standings with 2 points after 2 games. With England, Australia, Afghanistan, and Ireland scheduled to play before them, there is a good potential that Sri Lanka may drop to position 4.
Match Preview
There will be no chance of rain and a sunny day. Pitch is in the batters’ favour. Game scoring will likely be high. In the previous three games, 179 is the lowest first-innings total. On SCG, there is sufficient pace and bounce for pacers. The team that wins the toss will get to bat first.
Team Preview
We don’t anticipate any team changes ahead of this match because the weather was so bad for the Afghanistan vs. New Zealand game on Wednesday in Melbourne that there was no coin toss. Lockie Ferguson will be well-rested because he had nine days between games. In their most recent five games that were finished, New Zealand has prevailed four times.
The competition has been hampered by injuries for Sri Lanka’s fast bowlers, and Binura Fernando is the most recent player to be eliminated. Asitha Fernando has taken his position in the squad after he was forced to leave the field after bowling the first five balls of Australia’s innings. Sri Lanka’s seven wicket loss to Australia put a stop to a streak of three straight victories in this format.
