MATCH PREVIEW
ENGLAND
- England is one of the strongest contenders for the Cricket World Cup 2019 title because of the depth it has in its squad. They are lucky to be playing against a relatively weak opponent and can afford to rest its first-choice players.
- England’s bowling attack is also performing very well, and the express speed of Jofra Archer should be able to unsettle the Sri Lankan batsmen.
- There is no cricketing reason or logic why England should lose this game.

SRI LANKA
- There’s hardly anything which has gone right in Sri Lankan cricket in recent times. However, they’d be relatively happy by the position they’re currently in at the ladder in the ongoing Cricket World Cup.
- So far in the tournament, Sri Lanka has been part of only one completed fixture where they did well.
- All in all, considering that Sri Lanka was far from favorites in their last two matches, the washouts might have done more good than harm to the Sri Lankans.
