Sri Lanka’s Pathum Nissanka has scored 41, 22 & 47 runs in his last five innings.
Sri Lanka’s Dhananjaya de Silva has scored 36 & 21 in his last 5 innings.
Netherlands’ Max O'Dowd has scored 60 & 54* in his last 5 innings.
Netherlands’ Michael Levitt has scored 39 & 55 in his last 5 innings.

Head-to-Head

The two teams have met three times over the years in T20Is, with Sri Lanka winning all three matches.

Sri Lanka Form

Sri Lanka’s last scheduled match was rained off against Nepal. Their previous match saw them lose by two wickets to Bangladesh.

Sri Lanka scored 124/9, with Pathum Nissanka top-scoring with 47 off 28 balls.

Nuwan Thushara bowled superbly to pick up 4/18, knocking over three of Bangladesh’s top four. Bangladesh recovered to win with two wickets and one over to spare.

Sri Lanka Team News

Sri Lanka needs to improve their batting as well as their bowling and might look to make some changes to their squad.

Netherlands Form

After beating Nepal, the Netherlands lost to South Africa and then Bangladesh.

Bangladesh posted a solid 159/5 off their 20 overs, Paul van Meekeren (2/15) performing the best with the ball.

The Netherlands could only score 134/8 off their 20 overs, Sybrand Engelbrecht top-scoring with 33 off 22 balls.

Netherlands Team News

The Netherlands need to improve their batting and their bowling, and as a result they might look to make some changes to their starting lineup.

Verdict

Sri Lanka v Netherlands

I am backing Sri Lanka to win. I am also backing Pathum Nissanka to top score for Sri Lanka.

Max O'Dowd is a good bet to top score for the Netherlands.

Sri Lanka win
