Shreyas Iyer, who will be taking on the Lankans on home soil, will be the main focus of attention due to his 134 runs at an average of 33.50 in six previous matches. This year’s World Cup hasn’t seen Shreyas light up the field; instead, opposing teams have been focusing on his well-known vulnerability to short deliveries.
Sri Lanka’s Rollercoaster Journey
Sri Lanka has seen a wild ride thus far in a tournament marred by injuries.Following three straight losses to South Africa, Pakistan, and Australia, the Lankans recuperated to win two of their following three games, including one over the shielding title holders, Britain.
