The match between Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe has been postponed due to rain. Although the Sri Lankan team had a fall of wickets in the first innings, the Zimbabwean team managed to collect only 12 runs in the first innings with the fall of 2 wickets in 4 overs. Zimbabwe's poor performance in the first ODI, even if the match had followed the DLS system, Sri Lanka would have won. The run rate of the Sri Lankan team was more so the Sri Lankan team would have been ahead in any direction.
In Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe 1st ODI match Sri Lanka team scored 273 runs in 50 overs. Now Zimbabwe team came to bat. Zimbabwe scored 12 runs by losing 2 wickets in 4 overs. But the match was stopped due to rain. Zimbabwe team lost two wickets now. Under a lot of pressure, I don't think the Zimbabwe team will do well in today's match.
Let's be honest Zimbabwean team defeat were confirmed from start later after sirilankan team score 270+ around and they lose 2 quick wickets right before 5th over. As we all know that Zimbabwe are much more weaker team compared to sirilanka because they have only single player like sikander Raza who can make difference in crucial situation rather than him no one has ability to took charge and put his team on track. Anyway Asalanka performance were quite phenomenal no doubt it's weaker opponent but it doesn't matter while some other guys also add decent contribution. Now rain stop things and Match were turn to abounded but if rain didn't intrept them it was an easy victory for sirilankan team at first match of ODI series I saw the weather report. The weather in Colombo is not good now. The match is most likely to be abandoned. But if the match starts again then it is difficult to say what will be the result of the match. Because if the DLS method gives a target of 160-170 runs in 25 overs, then Zimbabwe will have a slim chance of winning. However, the Zimbabwean team is under a lot of pressure after losing two wickets quickly. However, they have several talented batsmen in their squad like SIkandar Raza, Kaitano and Madande. So if they have to bat against less runs target in DLS method then Zimbabwe has a chance to win. However, it is very unlikely that Zimbabwe will win by batting at a target of 273 runs.
That's true whether is on the opposite side of this match. I would like to agree with you that Zimbabwe team has those talented batsman who are capable to face this situation. But I think in DLS it would be more difficult to Zimbabwe team to win. Because I am seeing that zimbabwean batting line up become weak in front of Sri Lanka bowlers. So in my opinion even if match run on DLS method I don't think today Zimbabwe can beat Sri Lanka.
In first ODI match in between Zimbabwe sqaud and Sri Lanka sqaud, beginning of this match, Sri Lanka sqaud performance in batting inning was very impressive and their sqaud successfully collected great scores and in 50 overs, Sri Lanka sqaud wiped out nine batters and collected 273 scores. Now there batting inning was finished and Zimbabwe sqaud batting inning is continuing on crease and their sqaud performance was quite worst because almost in 3 overs, they lost their 2 batters collect only 5 scores. If their batting inning performance continues like this they might lost this match very badly and also high difference of scores. From Sri Lanka squad side, Charith Asalanka batter scored most scores in batting inning and he collected 101 scores after playing 95 deliveries now let's see how much Zimbabwe sqaud will collect scores in remaining overs and wickets.
The match of Zimbabwe vs Sri Lanka was finished and the output was not good for both teams because the rain was held and weather conditions in Colombo were not good that's why the match has been finished with no results, and I think that no matches can be played of this series because all the matches set to play in Colombo of this series, and also this series had three T20 which are also set to play in the same city Colombo and the weather of Colombo is not good so now we see all the matches with no results of this series.
Thie situation does not look look for both the teams and the spectators.
Today's performance of Sri Lankan team is best and Sri Lanka team has capacity to win match against any big team. But Zimbabwe luck is good today. Now , Umpires didn't decide that match will continue or draw the match. But I am supporting Sri Lankan team , they are hard working people. Asalanka century is brilliant and he is excellent player and he deserves man of the match but in this situation, it is not possible. Mendis also played very well and he made 46 crucial runs for his country.From Zimbabwe bowling side ,only one bowler bowled very well,who was Ngarave who took 2 wickets by giving 39 runs in 6 .4 overs.
Sri Lanka team performance is admirable. They made 273 runs in 50 overs. And especially I appreciate the performance of Charith Asalanka who made 101 runs on 95 balls and he hit 9 boundaries. 5 fours and 4 sixes. Except him there is no player who made 50 runs. And Zimbabwe performance was really bad. They lost 2 wickets on 12 runs.
But this match was stopped due to rain and now has finished with no result because rain didn't stop.
However, in this match if Zimbabwe's innings could have played above 20 overs before the rain then surely Sri Lanka would have won the equation by DLS method but it was declared abandoned due to rain after only 4 overs.

Rain interrupt the game and Srilanka will be not happy with current situation. It was full one sided game. Asalanka batting was so impressive. He could have done a lot of damage in last overs if he hadn't run out. I will say good luck for Zimbabwe.
273 is not a high score in ODI and a good team could chase it with one or two good partnerships. Zimbabwe team lost two important wickets at the start especially captain craig ervine. Rain is heavy and chances of resume is low although if we resume Srilanka will win easily
I mean let's get real, Sri Lanka was going to win that anyday. It was 12/2 for Zimbabwe. Sri Lanka's bowling is much stronger than their batting after the addition of some young bowlers to their team. But Asalanka's brilliant century went in vain as the match did not receive any result. Sri Lanka's effort was washed away by the rain.
The result was as expected. Sri Lanka would dominate the rest of the match and their biggest enemy will be rain.

This is yet another irrelevant series between two teams at the bottom of the full member group. Kusal Mendis is the only quality batsmen now in the Lankan squad and although their spinners are world class (such as Maheesh Theekshana), they are no more competitive against the pig-3 nations. Now coming to Zimbabwe, for the last decade or so they are losing matches regularly to stronger associate nations like Namibia and Netherlands. So this series is between two of the teams who are on the decline.

The first ODI between Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe has been called off due to rain. However, Sri Lanka batted first in this match and collected 273 runs for nine wickets in the allotted 50 overs.Charid Asalanka scored the highest 181 runs for the Sri Lankan team. Batting first with a target of 274, Zimbabwe fell into a batting disaster as they had already lost two wickets for 12 runs in four overs.As this match is delayed due to rain, Zimbabwe will be targeted on the DLS method if the match starts. If Zimbabwe bats well they may be able to win in DLS method.

Sri Lanka set a target of 274 runs in today's match but the match is stopped due to rain after only 4 overs but at the moment Zimbabwe has lost two wickets for only 12 runs which is calculated by DLS method Zimbabwe is far behind in run rate so maybe Sri Lanka can win by DLS method Announcing announcements may come.
However, the chances of starting the game in the rainy conditions so far are very low and the game is more likely to be abandoned at this moment. However, if the game starts, the overs can be reduced and the victory can be announced for any team in the DLS system.

The match of Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe was delayed by rain and this match was played in Colombo so, of course, the rain was high because Colombo rain can't be stopped easily.
After all, on the recent Asia Cup hosted by Pakistan but BCCI didn't come here so Asia Cup was moved to Sri Lanka and on that time, when matches were played in Colombo or any other state of Sri Lanka so the rain was not be stopped easily and this match also hosted by Colombo so maybe this match will be stopped due to rain and ended without result and if match finishes so this was good for Zimbabwe because, at this time, Zimbabwe team didn't look like to win.

You are right that in today's match may the winning chances could be more for Sri Lanka team but bad luck for them rain already come to the pitch. The match already stop for raining. I don't think much will be begin today. Even then if the match start again I don't think Zimbabwe can do better for winning because they have already lose two wickets in 4 overs and there run was only 12.

In today's match, the Sri Lankan team went into bat in the first innings and finished the game in 50 overs, losing nine wickets and collecting 273 runs. In the first innings of today's first match of the ODI series, Sri Lanka batsmen managed to perform well in the fast order and middle order batting, but the last order batting performance was not so good. If the last order batting performance could have done a bit better then the Sri Lankan team could have scored 300+. Still I think the Sri Lankan team players have managed to muster a good enough ram. Now in the second innings game if the Sri Lankan team can strengthen the bowling lineup. Then Sri Lanka will have a chance to win this match against Zimbabwe.
