5 Key Battles To Look Forward
Here are the 5 Key Battles To Look Forward in Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka Match :
Dilshan Madushanka vs Litton Das : The current World Cup has been a big moment for a Sri Lankan bowler Dilshan Madushanka. Even though Sri Lanka’s team has been having a tough time, Madushanka has been doing really well. He recently took five wickets in a match against India ,now he has the most wickets for his team in this ICC World Cup 2023 i.e 18 wickets in just 7 matches. Now, he’s feeling confident and wants to make things difficult for Litton Das from the other team, who is one of the main batsman of Bangladesh team in limited overs. But Litton hasn’t been in good form lately, so he’s going to have a tough time facing Madushanka’s tricky bowling.
Pathum Nissanka vs Mustafizur Rahman : Another Sri Lankan player, Pathum Nissanka, has been doing well in this World Cup and scored 289 runs in 7 innings but he had a bad game recently. Bangladesh wants to get him out early, and they might use Mustafizur Rahman to do it because he’s done it before. Mustafizur is good at making the ball move in different ways and can use different variation at different stage of the game.
Shakib Al Hasan vs Sadeera Samawickrama : There’s a special matchup in this game between a Bangladeshi spinner, Shakib Al Hasan, and a Sri Lankan batter who’s good at facing spin and is in a very good form and is a highest run getter for his team i.e 331 runs in 7 innings, Sadeera Samarawickrama. Shakib hasn’t been able to dismiss Sadeera yet, but he’ll try hard this time. Sadeera wants to do better after making a mistake in the last game, and Shakib wants to get him out early as he can be a dangerous for Bangladesh team once he get settled.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz vs Charith Asalanka : Mehidy Hasan Miraz from Bangladesh is a young player who is often compared to Shakib. He’s good at getting wickets at important times. He’s going to face a Sri Lankan batter named Charith Asalanka, who has been struggling in ICC World Cup 2023 but is a very good striker of a ball. Mehidy will try to use his skills to take advantage of Charith’s weaknesses, and this will be an important part of the game.
Dushmantha Chameera vs Mushfiqur Rahim : Dushmantha Chameera, a Sri Lankan bowler, has been doing well, but he hasn’t taken as many wickets as he wanted in this World Cup. The pitch in Delhi gives the ball a lot of bounce, and that could be a problem for Bangladeshi batters. Chameera is known for bowling short balls, which could be tough for Mushfiqur Rahim, who has trouble with those. It will be an interesting battle between Chameera and Mushfiqur Rahim, with Chameera trying to trouble Mushfiqur with his fast deliveries and Mushfiqur trying to respond well,though Chameera had dismissed Mushfiqur Rahim two times.
Maheesh Theekshana vs Mahmudullah : Theekshana is such a bowler who bowls at a fast pace but bowls in the middle of the wicket, hence playing him becomes a bit difficult in comparison to other bowlers. And Mahmudullah is an attacking batsman and does not want to let the bowler settle, so this contest will be a bit interesting and mahmudullah will enjoy batting in delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium.
