ENG vs SL Team Previews

England

England has shown an amazing ability to adapt to some pretty tough conditions so far and has easily been the most impressive team in the T20 World Cup alongside Pakistan. However, it must be noted that England is going to be playing its first match in Sharjah, where the conditions are the toughest.

If there is a place where England can trip up against Sri Lanka then it is Sharjah.

Of course, the facts all point to England dominating this match. Jason Roy, Jos Buttler, and Jonny Bairstow are scoring runs freely and in great form. They could struggle on a slower pitch but you would still back them to be more effective than Sri Lanka's batsmen. There is no doubt that England has more power and depth in its batting lineup but it could be tested if it has to bat first and set a target.

England has used its diverse bowling attack to use match-ups very well. With a number of left-handers in the top-order, expect the use of Moeen Ali at the top. This makes him a good option to bet on in this match. Tymal Mills is also someone that you can consider for the Top Bowlers Betting Market. In current form, England is the team to back no matter how you look at it.

England Playing 11

Jason Roy, Jos Buttler, Dawid Malan, Jonny Bairstow, Eoin Morgan, Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali, Chris Jordan, CR Woakes, Tymal Mills, AU Rashid.


Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka's batting was disappointing against South Africa and only Pathum Nissanka was able to get the team to a score of some respectability. Charith Asalanka has been the most impressive batsman for Sri Lanka in this edition of the T20 World Cup 2021. He has attacked the bowling and is clearing the boundaries quite regularly. He is a good option for the 'To Hit A Six' betting market.

Apart from these two, though, we would stay away from the betting markets for the Sri Lankan batsmen.

Wanindu Hasaranga picked up a hat-trick but we don't think he bowled that well. He was lucky to pick up some wickets caught on the boundary. Dushmanth Chameera and Lahiru Kumara (before his terrible last over) were the best bowlers for Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka has been a poor T20 team for quite some time now and to be able to beat England would be a terrific achievement. The only chance it has is to load its team with spinners and try to expose England's weaknesses.

Sri Lanka Playing 11

Kusal Perera, Pathum Nissanka, Charith Asalanka, Avishka Fernando, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Dasun Shanaka, Wanidu Hasaranga, Chamika Karunaratne, PVD Chameera, Maheesh Theekshana, Lahiru Kumara.

ENG vs SL Toss Prediction

The team that wins the toss is going to want to field first. Setting a target has been tricky for teams in England and there may be some dew later as well.

Pitch and Conditions

The conditions are expected to be friendly for spin and the match may not be very high-scoring. We have seen 140 be very tough to chase in the last two matches played at Sharjah. Those were day matches, though, and the one night match was where Afghanistan scored 190. It may be worth a punt to bet on the Total Score betting market in this match and to take a bit of a risk.

The pitch at Sharjah is quite difficult to score off and we don't think there will be over 11.5 sixes hit. England's bowling is quite good and its power hitters could struggle to hit the Sri Lankan spinners.

Asalanka has been the most impressive batsman for Sri Lanka in this tournament. He is very good against the spinners and can score quickly against the pacers as well.
