The teams will play with their full potential.

Pitch Report:

At Kardinia Park, the batsmen can’t just start hitting bowlers all over the place. Although the bowlers have a chance to limit the number of runs the batters score, they can do so if they bowl well.

There are opportunities for both bowlers and hitters to succeed on this field. For batters, this field’s peculiarities might provide more of a challenge than the pitch. This cricket field is narrower than others.

SL Vs NAM Probable Playing XIs:

SL: Kusal Mendis, Pathum Nissanka, Bhanuka Rajapasksa, Gunathilaka, Charith Asalanka, Dasun Shanaka, Wanindu Hasaranga, Theekshana, Chamika Karunaratne, Chameera, Madhushan

NAM: Stephan Baard, Lohandre Louwrens, Gerhard Erasmus, Divan la Cook, JJ Smit, David Wiese, Zane Green, Ruben Trumpelmann, Bernard Scholtz, Michael van Lingen, Ben Shikongo

Power Play Scores:

Both teams are coming from a win. They should be beaming with confidence. We can expect Sri Lanka to be dominant and score 50+ runs in powerplay.

Namibia will have to be cautious of Sri Lanka bowlers early on. They can score around 35-40 in the first six overs.

Death Over Scores:

The pitch will demand batters to get adjusted to the dimensions of the ground. Toward the end of an innings, we can expect batters to acclimatize. Sri Lanka may score 40 to 45 in the final four overs. While Namibia can post 30 to 35 on board during the death overs.

Overall Scores:

Sri Lanka can score somewhere in the range of 155-170 in their 20-over quota. Namibia may post 140-150 if they batted first.

Who Will Win Today’s Match Between SL Vs NAM?

Sri Lanka will start the game as the favourites to win this game as they have much strong team on paper compared to Namibia.

Both departments of the Sri Lanka team are known for consistent play and they will look to carry forward that reputation while winning their first game.

SL Vs NAM Today Dream Prediction:

The Island country has form and momentum without a doubt. Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga, spin twins, have achieved success via their victories. The pair has been outstanding with the ball in hand. Additionally using a bat, Bhanuka Rajapaksa and Shanaka have been working. The dup would like to contribute significantly and win the first game of the season against Namibia.

David Weise, a legendary all-arounder for Namibia, will be the most important player. His services were crucial in helping the squad advance to the Super 12 stage of the most recent T20 World Cup Qualifiers.
