ToggleThe BAN vs SL ICC World Cup 2023 match will be played in Delhion on November 6, Monday. The match starts at 2 pm IST with Bangladesh looking to split Sri Lanka’s campaign after they themselves were eliminated from the tournament.
Bangladesh are on a six-match losing streak after their win over Afghanistan. They were the first team to be eliminated from the tournament after their loss to the Netherlands in Kolkata. The Tigers have endured a poor campaign due to the constant changes to their playing XI and batting order. The bowlers too did not perform well. Shakib Al Hasan as the skipper did not promote him up in the batting order.
Sri Lanka are heading into this game after their loss to India. They were bowled out for 55 chasing 358 to win. The Lankans registered the lowest total of this World Cup. The management and the coaching staff were questioned by the board after their debatable loss to India.
The absence of their key players due to injuries including their skipper Dasun Shanaka has added to the misery for Sri Lanka. Wanindu Hasaranga is absent from the bowling attack as his Lahiru Kumara and Matheesha Pathirana. Dilshan Madushanka is the leading wicket-taker in the tournament despite Sri Lanka not doing well as a team.
Sri Lanka and Bangladesh have played 53 ODIs with the Lankans winning 43 games and Bangladesh nine. Sri Lanka defeated Bangladesh twice in the Asia Cup earlier this year. Bangladesh are yet to win against Sri Lanka in 50-over World Cups.
