Today in T20 World Cup, AUS vs SL: Challenge of Sri Lankan spinners in front of Australian batsmen, many important records can be made in the match

The 22nd match of the tournament will be played between Australia and Sri Lanka in T20 WC today. The match between the two teams will start at 7:30 pm in Dubai. Australia has played only one match in this World Cup so far, while the Sri Lankan team with young players has played a total of four matches including the qualifiers, and has won all. Australia and Sri Lanka have had a lot of exciting matches in the past and are expected to have a close fight even today.

Warner's form a concern

Australia had defeated South Africa by 5 wickets in the previous match. However, David Warner could not do much with the bat in that match. Even before the South African match, Warner has been disappointed with the bat for a long time. During IPL Phase-2, he was dropped from the team due to poor form. He will take to the field to play a big inning against Sri Lanka.

I Will keep an eye on fast bowlers

The responsibility of Australia will rest on its fast bowlers. Josh Hazlewood proved his mettle for IPL champion Chennai Super Kings. With him, Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins can create trouble for the Sri Lankan batsmen.

Sri Lanka is riding on the chariot of victory

The Sri Lankan team under the captaincy of Dasun Shanaka is in excellent form. The team has so far won 4 consecutive matches including the qualifier stage in this tournament. The team has excellent spinners and it will not be easy for the Australian batsmen to score runs against them on a slow pitch.

pitch and conditions

The wicket of the Dubai International Cricket Stadium has been beneficial for both the batsmen and the bowlers. West Indies were all out for 55 runs on the same ground, while both Pakistan and South Africa chased down the target with ease. Winning the toss on the Dubai ground and batting later would be a good option. Dew can play a big role in the second innings.

team news

Australia coach Justin Langer has made it clear that there will be hardly any change in the team's playing XI against Sri Lanka. Mitchell Marsh and Marcus Stoinis did not get a chance to bowl against South Africa, but this time they would like to do well if given the opportunity.

The Sri Lankan team can make a change. Off-spinner Mahesh Teekshana may return to the playing XI in the team. If he plays then maybe Binura Fernando may have to sit out.

match prediction

On paper, Australia's team looks strong. Even though the two teams have tied scores in eight matches in T20 Internationals, the Kangaroo team has won the last four T20 matches against Sri Lanka. A total of 3 matches have been played between the two in the T20 World Cup and Australia has tasted victory in two. Looking at the experienced players in the team, AUS seems to have the upper hand.

These records can be made in the match

Australia captain Aaron Finch has hit 399 sixes in T20 cricket so far. With one six in the match, his (400 sixes) will be completed in this format.

If Glenn Maxwell is successful in hitting 7 sixes against Sri Lanka, then he will complete his 100 sixes in T20Is.

With 4 wickets in the match, Lahiru Kumara will complete his 100 wickets in international cricket.
