Wanindu Hasaranga will be back after injury, which will make Sri Lanka’s spin unit stronger. He has brilliant numbers in these conditions and has been fantastic. Bangladesh also have players in good form, which will give them an equal chance in this game. It is about the top order, as both sides have in-form players.

But Sri Lanka have more stability in their middle order. Because the top-order batters are doing well for Bangladesh, their middle-order batters have not had many chances. That can play against them. Hence, we believe Sri Lanka have a better chance of winning this game.
