SRI LANKA TEAM PREVIEW
Sri Lanka has won the test series by 2-0 with a dominating performance against the Zimbabwe in white clothing. The team will enter the ODI series with the new captain, Upul Tharanga.
The dashing left-hander has been named as the captain in the absence of Angelo Mathews and Dinesh Chandimal, and a lot will depend on his performance. The Sri Lanka’s batting unit will rely heavily on the likes of Kusal Perera(w), Kusal Mendis, Niroshan Dickwella, Dhananjaya de Silva and captain himself.
The bowling of this team will be lead by experienced Nuwan Kulasekara, and he needs to find the support from Dasun Shanaka and Nuwan Pradeep. Jeffrey Vandersay will spin the white ball along side Sachith Pathirana.
The confidence of the team is on a high and one can expect them to fire in the very first ODI. A good all-round display of attacking cricket will be the key in the success of this team.
