THE LOWDOWN
ENGLAND Vs SRI LANKA
·
England simply had to beat New Zealand to keep
their competition hopes alive and did just that, overcoming the Black Caps by
20 runs after their score of 179/6 proved adequate as they restricted New
Zealand to 159/6 in response.
·
Skipper Jos Buttler played one of his most
crucial knocks for England and easily his best since being named white-ball captain,
crashing 73 from 47 balls, whilst fellow opener Alex Hales replied to the
pressure upon him by making a very welcome half-century.
·
Sri Lanka remains in the hunt for a place in the
semi-finals, but a poor net-run-rate means that they are likely to need a large
victory over England If they are to make it, with the expectation that both
Australia and New Zealand will win their final ‘Super 12’ fixtures against
Afghanistan and Ireland correspondingly.
·
This encounter boasts a fascinating side story
as Sri Lanka head coach Chris Silverwood goes up against his former employers,
who sacked him following their 4-0 Ashes disgrace in Australia at the start of
the year.
T20 World Cup: THE PREDICTION
Sri Lanka most likely needs to win this one by an important
margin and may well play into England’s hands, especially their bowlers who
will look to order accuracy to try to break the spine of Sri Lanka’s top order
with early wickets irrespective of whether they are bowling first or second.
After a slow start, it feels like England is preliminary to finding its feet,
as shown in what was an excellent all-round performance against New Zealand. If
they duplicate those levels with bat and ball in this contest, Buttler’s men
will be predictable to wind up too strong for Sri Lanka.

All you need to see is ahead of England Vs Sri Lanka at the T20
World Cup. This weekend England will take on Sri Lanka for their fifth
and final group stage fixture following a successful win over current group
leaders New Zealand this week. England had just one win to
their name until Tuesday 1 November, beating Afghanistan but losing to
Ireland the previous week. To know

England set up a score of 179 for New Zealand to pursue
down, thanks to the efforts of Alex Hales towards the end of the power play and
Jos Buttler further into the runs. Hales hit 52 off 40 before Buttler came into
the act and scored 73 off 47. England was abridged to 179/6 by the end of the
innings with Trent Boult the only bowler not to take a wicket.

However, two wickets for Chris Woakes and Sam Curran as well
as a wicket each for Mark Wood and Ben Stokes reduced New Zealand’s
total rapidly and, despite a solid effort from Glenn Philips who hit 62 off
just 36 balls, Kane Williamson’s side could only reach 159/6 by the end of
their 20 overs. England’s win has now put them back up to another in the group
table and they must beat Sri Lanka if they are to progress to the next stage of
the rivalry.
When is England Vs Sri Lanka?
The two sides will meet on Saturday 5 November 2022 with a

winning nine times and Sri Lanka taking the win four times. They first played
each other in a T20I in June 2006. England has won the last three competitions
against Sri Lanka, winning all games since March 2006.
Sri Lanka came through the group succeeding stage to reach
the Super12 and have beaten Ireland and Afghanistan. Their losses to Australia
and New Zealand have put them fourth in the group due to the net run rate.
