AUS vs SL Dream11 Team Prediction Cricket World Cup 2023

AUS vs SL Match Preview

Australia have got off to a miserable start to their World Cup campaign. The team suffered a big defeat to India in the first game and then lost to South Africa to put their campaign in jeopardy. Australia need to win against Sri Lanka to stay alive in the tournament. A loss will almost put an end to their campaign.

Sri Lanka also face a similar situation after losing to Pakistan and South Africa in the first two games. A loss in the next game will almost knock them out of the tournament.

Let’s take a look at the dream11 team prediction for this match.

AUS vs SL Dream11 Top Fantasy Picks All Rounders, Batsman, Bowlers, Wicket Keepers

AUS vs SL Dream11 Top Picks

Mitchell Marsh

Mitchell Marsh has been out of form in recent few games but he can be brutal at the top against a slightly weaker Sri Lanka attack. We can see a big hundred from Marsh.

Steve Smith

Steve Smith will be vital in Lucknow. The pitch will be helpful for spinners and Australia will need a player who can rotate strike and play a long innings, just what Smith does for Australia.

Josh Hazlewood

Josh Hazlewood will be crucial with the new ball. If there is some swing on offer, Hazlewood can run through the Sri Lanka top order.

Kusal Mendis

Kusal Mendis has been in great form for Sri Lanka. He scored a sublime fifty against South Africa and then scored 122 of 74 against Pakistan. He needs to play another good innings to give Sri Lanka a chance.

Dhananjaya de Silva

Dhananjaya de Silva will be handy for Sri Lanka given his all-round skills. He can be destructive in the death overs if Sri Lanka are in good position or can drop anchor and stabilize the innings if they lose early wickets. He can also bowl 10 overs of spin which will be handy in Lucknow.
