T20 World Cup 2021: Match Prediction for the game between Sri Lanka and Namibia

 

Sri Lanka and Namibia will take on each other at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Monday in Group A fixture of the T20 World Cup. Sri Lanka is the 2014 T20 World Cup champion but they will need to go through the qualifying process to make it to the Super 12s. Their cricket has taken a downward slope since then and they will look to bring their best.

We have got Match Prediction on the basis of current form, head-to-head, stats, and players to watch out for in the upcoming match.

Current form for Sri Lanka: L W W W W

Sri Lanka played two matches against Oman to get used to the UAE conditions, which would have certainly helped their players in getting acclimatized to the conditions. The Island nation won both of those matches and also won their warm-up matches against Bangladesh and Papua New Guinea, which would have certainly given them confidence.

Current form for Namibia: L L W W W

Namibia will need to bring their best to the table if they are to challenge Sri Lanka. They lost both their warm-up matches against Scotland and Oman and they will have to turn the tables in their main fixture. David Wiese, former South African all-rounder will be seen playing for Namibia in the T20 World Cup.

Head to Head: This is the first time when these two teams will face each other in the T20 format.

Players to watch out for: Kusal Perera, Chamika Karunaratne, Avishka Fernando, Wanindu Hasaranga, and Dushmantha Chameera will hold the key for Sri Lanka.

Zane Green, Gerhard Erasmus, David Wiese, and JJ Smit will be the crucial players for Namibia.

Match Prediction: Sri Lanka will enter the contest as favorites against depleted Namibia.
