Hope today's match we will see a very competitive match. Every World Cup we really see Australia as very strong, but in this World Cup we don't see good performance from Australia. According to the statistics of the last two matches, Sri Lanka's batting line is very strong than Australia. However, Australia's bowling line is stronger than Sri Lanka's. The toss has already taken place, Sri Lanka won the toss and decided to bat. So far Sri Lanka have collected 39 runs in 6.2 overs. If Sri Lanka can score 280+ runs today then Sri Lanka will have a chance to win.
Australia is a strong team but they are not in good form now. Australia are at the bottom of the points table after losing their first two matches. So it cannot be said for sure whether Australia will be able to defeat the Sri Lankan team in today's match.
  Sri Lanka won the toss and decided to bat. Both the openers are batting responsibly. Sri Lanka collected 51 runs without losing a wicket in 10 overs of power play. Quite a good collection. If they can deliver a target of 280+ on this pitch, I think the Sri Lankan bowlers can dominate the match. But if Australia's batsmen return to form, the whole scenario can change.
Sri Lanka won the toss and decided to bat early in today's match. Sri Lanka took 51 runs without losing any wicket in 10 overs of Powerplay but currently Sri Lanka's collection in 23 overs is 137 runs losing 1 wicket. At the moment, Sri Lanka will easily cross 320 runs if they continue till 50 overs. If Sri Lanka can give a target of 320 runs to Australia, it does not seem that Australia can break the target of 320 runs and beat Sri Lanka today. I don't think Australia can get back to that previous phase in this World Cup. However, it is not right to make assumptions as any playground incident can happen at any moment.

I thought Sri Lanka would give 280+ target today. Because their two openers Nissanka and Kusal Perera collected 61 and 78 runs respectively. But even then no other batsmen of the Sri Lankan squad could bat well. Apart from Charith's 25 runs, no other batsman can collect even 10 runs. And finally Sri Lanka's innings stopped at just 209 runs. I don't think it is possible to beat an opponent like Australia by giving such a low target. Because today Australia are desperate to win. Australia desperately need a win in today's match after two successive defeats.
We haven't seen better batting today than two of Australia's most important batsmen, Warner and Smith. Warner returned to the dressing room with 11 runs and Smith failed to score any runs. Mitchell Marsh was dismissed for 52 runs. Australia has now collected 121 runs after losing 3 wickets.

Wao what a dramatic collapse of sirilankan batting order especially after dismissal of thier top order, they way they start the inning I taught they will easily scored above 300 because thier opening scored 100+ partnership but later things got changed rapidly in blink of eye Grin,
Even in yesterday's match, Afghanistan started out great with a big opening partnership but their middle order were able to keep on building partnerships against England and finally it ended up being one of the biggest upset in World Cup history but today Sri Lanka was on a similar situation but then the rest of the batsman failed to make any impact and in reply Mitchell Marsh played an incredible innings when others were finding it difficult to play and Australia should win from this situation as the target is not that huge.

Sri Lanka's batting towards the end looks like we are watching a circus. First a partnership of 125 runs and then Sri Lanka lost a wicket every time I blinked an eye. Having scored 125 for no wicket in 21 overs, Sri Lanka would be all out for 209. It was beyond our imagination. After such a good start what can be expected from the team if the end is so bad. It is difficult for the opening batsmen to get runs on the wicket and that difficult task was made easy by the two Sri Lankan batsmen today but the middle order batsmen and lower order batsmen just came and went and could not do anything. The second innings continues with Australia scoring 34 runs and losing two valuable wickets. Since the target is not too big, Australia definitely has a great chance to win this match.

It is still better than what Pakistan's batters did when they played against India. Srilanka still got to a respectable total if I compare their batting with Pakistan, who have far better batters than Srilanka. The Srilankan bowlers have got 2 early wickets of David Warner and Marsh, which can help them to defend a low target. The chance of winning this game is low for Srilanka but you cannot forget what happened yesterday with England. They lost wickets so quickly because of the rain interruption as it would have led to moisture on the pitch which might have made it worse for the Srilankan batters to bat.
Australia need just 101 runs to win this easy match with seven wickets in hand and 30 overs remaining. Australia lost the first two wickets in quick succession before Mitchell Marsh was run out after a superb 50 and returned to the pavilion. Had Mitchell Marsh not been out, Australia would have scored more runs. With 7 wickets still in hand and needing just 101 runs to win, it is only a matter of time for Australia to win this match. The way the Australian batsmen started getting out in the first place almost made this match difficult. If Australia win this match, they will see victory in the third match after two consecutive matches. It is very important for Australia to win this match because they definitely need a team like Australia to fight against big teams like England India New Zealand.

*STOP NOWHERE*
Sri Lanka really now down and out, they have lost 9 wickets for just 206 runs. It wont be easy to defend such a small target against Aussies. Apart from openers only Charith Asalanka was able to score 23 runs rest all batters couldn't make it to double figure. This collapse is very similar to what happens with Pakistan in there last game against India. For me the game is very much in Australia favor.
Wao what a dramatic collapse of sirilankan batting order especially after dismissal of thier top order, they way they start the inning I taught they will easily scored above 300 because thier opening scored 100+ partnership but later things got changed rapidly in blink of eye Grin, Thier in-form player K.Mendis unable to support his team at crutical situation and his dismissal become the turning point because he can be the only player to changed the total board numbers.
Anyway they scored 209 which will be any easy target but if they come out of his previous defeat shadow. Hope after this match Australia will comback stronger
The match between Sri Lanka and Australia was delayed because of the DLS method, but now the match is starting again. Sri Lanka gave a very low target so Australia should win this match because the Australian team has the last position on the point table and this is a good opportunity to come back, I know that Australia will take advantage of this opportunity.
The first over in the Australian innings just ended and they did 15 scores in a single over, so it means Australia wants to win this match. In today’s match, we saw that Australia improved their bowling and batting because, in past matches, they always lost because of these two departments.
Australia started the game well but now three wickets have fallen.  Which basically the batsmen are out of the field because they didn't collect many runs only the opening batsman Mitchell Marsh collected 52 runs. However, Sri Lanka is also performing well in terms of bowling. But the main point is that the Sri Lankan team set a target of 209 runs which is a small challenge for the Australian team. But if the Australian team can play patiently till the end of the match then there is definitely a chance of winning. At the moment, only 115 runs are needed for the Australian team to win.

As the target is only 210 runs. Australia's chances of defeat in this match are very low. A target of more than 250 would have been difficult for Australia to win. Because Australian batsmen are not in good form now.
The team is batting at a target of only 210 runs. I thought Australia's top order would be able to bat responsibly. But like the last two matches, Australia's top order could not play well today. The team lost two wickets for 24 runs and the third wicket for 81 runs. Labuchagne and Inglis are batting very well now. Australia collected 106 runs in 19 overs. Only 104 runs were needed to win. Collecting 104 runs in 31 overs is not a difficult task.

I like to treat everyone as a friend 🔹
Sri Lanka started well today but later on they could not hold on to wickets. Their partnership was good when they scored 116 runs in 21 overs but could not score more runs in the match due to the fall of wickets later on. Since the dismissal of Pathum Nissanka, no batsman has been able to pair the game well and since then the wickets have fallen the most and the run rate has slowed down. At the moment Sri Lanka have lost 8 wickets, but their runs have not increased much. 8 for 199 Sri Lanka are under enough pressure at the moment and I think they will lose all their wickets very soon. They could have scored 300 runs if they could have played the game today but from this score they failed and it is not possible to increase their runs. But Australia is bowling very well especially Adam Zampa bowled brilliantly and he took 4 wickets, his bowling performance put Srilanka under so much pressure today.

The way Sri Lanka were batting at the start, it looked like they would be able to score enough runs today to cross the 300 mark. However, after 21 overs played in a great partnership, wickets fell in 22 overs and from then on Sri Lanka got frustrated and started putting up a poor batting performance. It was envisaged that Sri Lanka would have amassed a much bigger score if they had held on in the batting form they were in today. However, Sri Lanka did well in the beginning but could not do well in the end and were all out for 209 runs. They could not give Australia a big target. Coming into bat in the second innings, Australia lost two of their great batsmen, which made their team somewhat normal. And now Mitchell Marsh has lost another valuable wicket as the run rate has started to slow down since he got out. If Sri Lanka can have a good bowling line-up, they can stop Australia, but I think Australia still have a chance to win the match. At the moment, Australia must bat well to win the match and Australia have collected 100 grams, for which they need 110 runs.

Sri Lanka's batting was excellent at the start, batting well till 21 overs. Sri Lanka's opening batting both played well, Kusal Perera 78, Pathum Nissanka 61 runs. After both of them got out, Sri Lanka's batting line-up became very poor. Wickets keep falling after 1-2 overs continuously. Apart from the opening batting pair, no one else could make a good pair. Kusal Mendis batted very well but got out for 8 runs in today's match. At the beginning, I thought Sri Lanka's batting would score 300 plus runs. But unable to hold on to the wicket, they were all out for 209 runs. Australia came back strong, with Adam Zampa single-handedly picking up 4 crucial wickets. Australia has already gone to bat and collected 15 runs in 1 over. Australia will win easily today.

What a turnaround in Lucknow! Sri Lanka started strong at 125/0 but ended up being bowled out for 209/10. Their batting performance drastically declined after a promising start, resembling Pakistan's struggle in the previous match.

Horrific batting display by Sri Lanka, but Aussie bowlers did an excellent job. Now, it's time for Aussie batters to step up and claim their first win.

It was similar to that of the previous match. Sri Lanka have ended its innings for 209 runs. The first wicket fell at 125, Nissanka and Perera made good partnership. Adam Zampa and Pat Cummins paved way for the bowling attack on Sri Lanka team. David Warner and Pat Cummins were really good at the fielding. Asalanka tried to score little runs from the tail end, but he could do it well. With this low score it isn't going to be hard competence for Australia to chase. As said in one of the posts, Australia will try to win the match at the earliest to improve its net runrate, because the close fight at the end of league is based on the net runrate and not much on the points.

Sri Lanka today got a good start. Openers gave a stand of 125 runs and if rest of batters played with responsibility then SL have chance to cross 300 runs. Sri Lankan batsmen scored 344 runs in last game but there bowling failed to defend such a huge target. Today its Australia and they have lost both of there opening games so far and they must be looking for there first win today. Definitely it will be a good contest today.
Sirlanka Current score is 198 runs in loss of 7 wickets in 39 Overs. Kusal Perera played a fantastic fifty scoring 78 runs in 82 balls and Pathum Nissanka departs after scoring back-to-back half-centuries for his team scoring 61 runs un 67 balls. Australia bowling performance was amazing  Adam Zampa bowling outstanding picked up 3 wicket by giving 46 runs in 7 Overs and pat Cummins also picked 2 wickets by giving 32 runs in his bowling spell. Srilanka poor batting performance they give easy wickets to Australia and its difficult to Sirlanka to cross 250 plus runs. The Target under 250 runs will be easily chase Australia have very good chance to win this match.

The Sri Lankan team had a good chance but it remains to be seen how well they can implement. Because the match was stopped for some time due to rain, a wicket fell after it resumed. A total of 5 wickets fell to Sri Lanka's current total of 181. They still have a long way to go if they want to run towards 300 runs. Another wicket fell. It is now almost certain that the Sri Lankan team is unlikely to go much further. It will be difficult to beat the Australian team in this score if the position of the Australian team is not good in this World Cup. A similar situation happened in the Pakistan vs India match. The middle order had completely collapsed. Today the Sri Lankan team is going to have the same fate.

As far as I understand today's match can be very disappointing for Sri Lanka team. You can see they were playing well before the match was temporarily suspended due to rain. Accordingly, Sri Lanka lost 2 wickets after that and their run rate has reduced a lot compared to earlier. Sri Lanka are currently 196 after 38 overs. However, it is very difficult for Sri Lanka to beat Australia. Although we have England vs Afghanistan match, Afghanistan is playing very well. Although Sri Lanka is not playing well but if they play like that and bowl well then good things can be expected. Let's see what happens till the end.

Today in the 14th match of the World Cup, two teams who have not seen a win in the World Cup tournament will face each other today.  Australia and Sri Lanka played two matches each where they failed to collect any points. Although these two teams could not win in the first two matches, today either team is going to win this match. Sri Lanka's aggressive batting against Pakistan and South Africa has nothing to hold Sri Lanka back in this match but Sri Lanka's biggest problem is their bowling line-up. Sri Lanka may have come to the World Cup with the worst bowling lineup in this World Cup tournament because they can't win the match despite scoring 340 to 350 runs, it's completely the failure of the bowlers. Sri Lanka's batting line-up is strong but Australia will surely come back in this match as they have already lost their first two matches due to which they are at the bottom of the points table.
Yes it is true that Sri Lanka bowling line up is very bad in this world cup. We have seen two matches both matches where Sri Lanka's bowling line-up was very poor. But if Sri Lanka can strengthen the bowling line-up today, then maybe today's match with Australia can be won. Meanwhile, Australia was once a very strong and dependable team, but in this World Cup, Australia has become a very weak team. Because Australia has played two matches in this World Cup and lost both of them. Both the teams will fight hard today in the fight for survival let's see which team will win the match. If I have to predict in advance then I can predict win for Australia. Otherwise I cannot predict for Sri Lanka.
Hope today's match we will see a very competitive match. Every World Cup we really see Australia as very strong, but in this World Cup we don't see good performance from Australia. According to the statistics of the last two matches, Sri Lanka's batting line is very strong than Australia. However, Australia's bowling line is stronger than Sri Lanka's. The toss has already taken place, Sri Lanka won the toss and decided to bat. So far Sri Lanka have collected 39 runs in 6.2 overs. If Sri Lanka can score 280+ runs today then Sri Lanka will have a chance to win.

Australia is a strong team but they are not in good form now. Australia are at the bottom of the points table after losing their first two matches. So it cannot be said for sure whether Australia will be able to defeat the Sri Lankan team in today's match.
  Sri Lanka won the toss and decided to bat. Both the openers are batting responsibly. Sri Lanka collected 51 runs without losing a wicket in 10 overs of power play. Quite a good collection. If they can deliver a target of 280+ on this pitch, I think the Sri Lankan bowlers can dominate the match. But if Australia's batsmen return to form, the whole scenario can change.
Sri Lanka won the toss and decided to bat early in today's match. Sri Lanka took 51 runs without losing any wicket in 10 overs of Powerplay but currently Sri Lanka's collection in 23 overs is 137 runs losing 1 wicket. At the moment, Sri Lanka will easily cross 320 runs if they continue till 50 overs. If Sri Lanka can give a target of 320 runs to Australia, it does not seem that Australia can break the target of 320 runs and beat Sri Lanka today. I don't think Australia can get back to that previous phase in this World Cup. However, it is not right to make assumptions as any playground incident can happen at any moment.
