SL vs ENG Dream11 Match Prediction | Who Will Win Today match

Dambulla, October 10 at 02:30 PM IST

England kickstart their tour of Sri Lanka locking horns with the hosts in the first One Day International of the five-match series at Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium on Wednesday.

The visitors warmed up with a win in the one-day practice game against a decent Sri Lanka XI side, with Moeen Ali, Joe Root and Eoin Morgan delivering for the side. England come into the ODI series after beating number two ranked India 2-1 earlier this summer and whitewashing Australia 5-0 before that.

It has been a struggle for Sri Lanka in the white-ball formats for a while. At last month’s Asia Cup, they lost their two games against Bangladesh and Afghanistan to crash out of the tournament in the league stage. However, familiar wickets and conditions give them a fair chance against in-form England.

Pitch conditions: Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium is known to offer help to the slow bowlers.

Last ODI result at the venue: Sri Lanka 244/8 lost to South Africa 246/6 – South Africa tour of Sri Lanka at Dambulla, Aug 01 2018
