Spin Bowling

Img cricket stadium

Colombo will have slower surface and we expect the spinners to have an upper hand on this surface. We expect the average scores to be around 140-150 runs in this match.

Toss: To Bat

Both teams will look to bat first here as the pitch might slow down as the match progresses. 





Sri Lanka have a good batting and bowling line-up with quality players who made a superb contributions in favourable hone conditions. Zimbabwe have a good batting line-up but lacks consistency while facing quality spinners in tricky conditions. Their bowlers were good but need to perform well as a unit together as they leaked runs from fifth bowler. We expect Sri Lanka to win in this match.

Sri Lanka will win the match series 2-0
