Bangladesh will not be competing in the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup knockout stages. When they meet Sri Lanka in the 38th game of CWC, they will be playing for dignity. The Bangladeshis have been struggling with their form after losing to Pakistan in their most recent match. In order to win this game, Sri Lanka must bounce back from their crushing loss to India in the last encounter.
Bangladesh has suffered six straight losses. The main players haven’t performed well as a unit, and the team has been inconsistent. They have lost six of the last eight games and have a dismal record versus the Lankans. We anticipate a competitive game in this one because the Lankans aren’t feeling very good either.
After winning their first game, Shakib al Hasan’s team has now suffered six straight losses. They were the first team eliminated from the competition after losing to Pakistan by seven wickets in the last match. For the side that was predicted to perform well in these circumstances, it has been a major setback. They aim to put on a strong performance in this game and compete for pride.
Tanzid Hasan and Litton Das, who haven’t been reliable, will try to perform well in this game at the top. In the middle order, they anticipate strong performances from captain Shakib, Mushfiqur Rahim, and Najmul Hossain Shanto. Mahmudullah will try to add quick runs with Towhid Hridoy and Mehidy Hasan Miraz because he has performed effectively in the bottom middle order.
The form of Bangladesh’s bowling attack has been erratic. Taskin Ahmed and Shoriful Islam, who will try to rattle the inexperienced Sri Lankan batting lineup, will need to put in a strong stint for them. Shakib, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, and Mustafizur Rahman are skilled bowlers, and the team hopes they can do well in this match.
Bangladesh Predicted XI:
Shakib Al Hasan (c), Mahmudullah, Taskin Ahmed, Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Tanzid Hasan, and Towhid Hridoy
When playing India, Kusal Mendis and his team must escape their nightmare. Their demeanor and abilities have come under scrutiny following their 302-run defeat in the previous game. They have suffered crushing defeats in games. Mendis and his team would need a huge victory to boost their appalling run rate, but they still have a chance to advance if some other games go their way.
Against India, the batting lineup collapsed and was bowled out for 55 runs. The team will need Pathum Nissanka and Dimuth Karunaratne to get off to a strong start. Having batted effectively in the tournament, Kusal Mendis and Sadeera Samarawickrama will try to form middle-order partnerships with Charith Asalanka. Dushan Hemantha and Angelo Mathews must both put up strong performances for the side in the bottom middle order.
In the majority of games, the bowling offense has fallen short of its goals. The star bowler, Dilshan Madushanka, needs to give them early breakthroughs alongside Dushmantha Chameera. To control the scoring pace, Maheesh Theekshana and Kasun Rajitha must bowl tight periods in the middle overs. Hemantha and Matthews are expected to deliver a strong performance in their supporting roles, as well.
Sri Lankan Predicted XI:
Dushan Hemantha, Maheesh Theekshana, Kasun Rajitha, Dushmantha Chameera, Dilshan Madushanka, Pathum Nissanka, Dimuth Karunaratne, Sadeera Samarawickrama, Charith Asalanka, Angelo Mathews
Weather Conditions
November 6th will bring hazy skies over Delhi. Large scores have been achieved on what has proven to be the best batting surface in the competition. The bowlers have limited options on this course; their only chance of success is to rely on their variations. The team batting first needs to score 320 runs in order to feel secure.
The Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium’s pitch typically works in the batters’ favor. Due to the surface’s small borders and dry conditions, hitters can readily hit boundaries. As the play goes on, the ground will turn dry, at which point the spinners will receive help. The team that wins the toss will probably bat first to protect their total based on past performance records.
For batsmen, Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium is a haven. They may score runs rapidly because of the short boundaries and swift outfield. For fast bowlers, this course doesn’t provide much. The spinners have a strong track record and receive favorable help from the wicket.
Toss: To Bat
On this wicket, we have witnessed enormous victories for the teams that opened the batting. Under the lights, the bowlers can manipulate the wicket, which was at its best in the first innings. Therefore, in this game, the team winning the toss should not think twice about starting at bat.
Sri Lanka will Win this Match
Bangladesh arrives here having suffered six straight defeats. The fact that the team’s best players haven’t performed yet is a major issue. To win, they have to approach this game with positivity. Although they haven’t improved either, Sri Lanka will be encouraged by their strong record versus Bangladesh. Though we anticipate a close contest, Sri Lanka has a tiny advantage.
