SL vs BAN Preview

Led by Najmul Hossain Shanto, Bangladesh’s bowling department is their biggest strength. Meanwhile, their batting seems to be a concern for Bangladesh, with experienced players like Litton Das, Najmul Shanto, Soumya Sarkar and Shakib struggling with form. So, the onus will be on Towhid Hridoy, Tanzid Hasan and Mahmudullah to bat long and ensure a respectable score for the Tigers.

On the other hand, Sri Lanka had a horrendous start to their T20 World Cup journey as South Africa crushed them by six wickets. Despite having flamboyant stroke players throughout their lineup, the Lankans managed only 77 runs, putting up one of the most shambolic batting efforts in their rich history.

The onus will be on Kusal Mendis, Charith Asalanka, Pathum Nissanka and Sadeera Samarawickrama to keep the scoreboard ticking, while the bowling unit led by skipper Wanindu Hasaranga would be keen to give Bangladesh a run for their money.

Grand Prairie Stadium Pitch Report

The surface at Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas will offer a hint of seam movement to the fast bowlers early on. However, as the moisture dries out, it will be a great batting track with even pace and bounce. The spinners might get some grip and turn, making things challenging for the batters in the middle overs. Considering the trend, the toss-winner might opt to field first.

Who will win today match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh (15th match of T20 World Cup 2024)?

Sri Lanka and Bangladesh have faced each other in 16 matches in T20. Out of these 16 games, Sri Lanka have won 11 whereas Bangladesh have come out victorious on 5 occasions.
In the last 5 T20I matches, Sri Lanka have a lead of 4-1 over Bangladesh.

Wicket-keepers: K Mendis, L Das

For Grand League, Mega Contest: M Pathirana, P Nissanka

What are BAN vs SL Fantasy Tips?

D Shanaka & N Hossain Shanto are some of out of the box picks.
C Asalanka already has an eighty against Bangladesh in this format. He is going to fire if he gets a good amount of balls.
This is a risky game to play in small leagues.
