Under pressure Sri Lanka look to lift their game

Rex Clementine in Dallas

After their disappointing show in the opening encounter in New York against South Africa, Sri Lanka are under tremendous pressure to lift the game in their second encounter of the World Cup against Bangladesh on Friday.

Sri Lanka crashed to a heavy defeat in their first game after being bowled out for their lowest total in T-20 Internationals, but they are too good a team to make a first-round exit.

Batting hasn’t clicked as a unit and Sri Lanka will be hoping that they bring up their best game in the must win clash.

The former champions aren’t expected to make too many changes for the game, at least in the bowling front. They opted to play Matheesha Pathirana and Nuwan Thushara against South Africa, and they are expected to bank on the two slingy bowlers.

Thushara had claimed a hat-trick the last time he played Bangladesh and that will be back in the minds of Bangladesh batters. That means, the more experienced Dushmantha Chameera sits out from the game.

One change Sri Lanka could do is to bring in middle order batter Dhananjaya de Silva in place of Sadeera Samarawickrama, who has struggled during the warm-up games before falling for a duck against South Africa.

Sri Lanka have won 11 of the 15 T-20 Internationals against Bangladesh including two games in T-20 World Cups (2007 and 2021). They also beat them in the recent bilateral series in Bangladesh.

However, Bangladesh are a team on the rise. Their quicks – Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman and Shoriful Islam are terrific with the new ball. The team’s batting revolves around captain Najmul Shanto while all-rounder Shakib-al-Hasan is a seasoned campaigner.

Young players like Jakar Ali and Rishad Hossain have come up with several match winning efforts. Although Sri Lanka have a slight advantage, Bangladesh can certainly pull this off and earn a place in the second round.

It has been hot and humid in Dallas and which means in a day-night fixture the toss could be vital.

As Sri Lanka prepares to host Zimbabwe for the ODI series, all eyes will be on Kusal Mendis and his team as they aim to start the year with a statement performance, setting the stage for a successful 2024 campaign.

Big Blow For Sri Lanka Ahead Of Asia Cup Final vs India

Maheesh Theekshana has been ruled out of the match due to a grade three hamstring tear.© AFP Sri Lanka have suffered a huge blow on the eve of the Asia Cup final against India as star spinner Maheesh Theekshana has been ruled out of the match due to a grade three hamstring tear. Theekshana will take no part in the final on Sunday, but is expected to be included in Sri Lanka's final World Cup squad. Theekshana had strained his right hamstring while fielding during Sri Lanka's two-wicket win over Pakistan on Thursday. "Maheesh Theekshana, who strained his right hamstring during the game against Pakistan, will not be available for the finals," said a statement from ACC. Theekshana went off the field multiple times while Sri Lanka was bowling. He was seen hobbling but completed his nine-over spell in the 42-over-per-side contest before being helped off the field by some Sri Lanka dugout members in the 39th over. Theekshana's injury adds to Sri Lanka woes. They are already without the likes of Wanindu Hasaranga, Dushmantha Chameera, Lahiru Madushanka and Lahiru Kumara. Theekshana is Sri Lanka's highest wicket-taker in ODIs in 2023 with 31 scalps in 15 matches at an average of 17.45. He will undoubtedly be a key member of Sri Lanka's 2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup squad should he remain fit. Teams have to submit their final teams for the mega event by September 28. Sri Lanka will play two warm up games, against Bangladesh (September 29) and Afghanistan (October 3) respectively, before their opening match on October 7 against South Africa Topics mentioned in this article Big Blow For Sri Lanka Ahead Of Asia Cup Final vs India Read the full article
