ENG vs SL Dream11 Predictions: Preview
Can England continue their dominant run?
England were ruthless in their opening game against the defending champions, West Indies. They clearly seemed to have buried the ghosts of 2016 final. England employed a brilliant strategy to choke the opposition well upfront. They went in with Moeen Ali to counter the left-handers in the lineup. Once they broke open their top-order, England attacked with wrist spin.
They continued their good show in the 2nd game too. It was their bowling that won them the game once again. England picked up 3 wickets inside the powerplay to leave Bangladesh reeling. They were impressive with the bat too as Jason Roy plundered the bowling to all corners. England though put on their most clinical show against arch-rivals, Australia. Their new ball bowlers produced a swinging masterclass to bundle the Aussies out for just 125.
Jos Buttler then went on to show why he is considered amongst the 3 white-ball players in the world. He and Roy combined forces to leave the Aussie bowling attack in disarray. They are the form team of the tournament. England look unstoppable at this moment.
Will the Lankan lions fight to survive another day?
Sri Lanka chased down a formidable total against Bangladesh in their opening Super-12 game. Not many expected them to win the game chasing a total of 171. But their middle-order came an absolute cropper against Australia in the 2nd game. They lost the game in a space of four overs losing 4 wickets to both spin and pace.
The Lankan bowlers too had an off day as they couldn’t defend a decent total on board. They went on to lose a close game against South Africa from a position of relative strength. Two successive losses has robbed Sri Lanka’s sheen to a great extent. They need to win to stay alive in the competition. But they are against an in-form England team. The Lankans are up against the odds already.
