AUS vs SL 3rd T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips
Having won the first two games, Australia will look to seal the series in the third T20I itself. The match will be played at Manuka Oval in Canberra and will start at 1:40 PM IST
After a thriller in Sydney, Sri Lanka and Australia move to Canberra for the third match. Sri Lanka have lost both their previous games thus this is a must-win match for them. They have been good in patches but have failed to pull off a collective effort. The bowlers did well in both games and restricted Australia to par scores. However, batters had no clue about the Aussie bowling. The last match was close but it was mainly because of the cameo from Dasun Shanaka. Other than him, Australia dominated for the most part.
Meanwhile, the hosts also have some work to do in the batting department. All the players are getting starts but are not converting them into big scores. As a result, they have to settle for average scores. However, no matter how few the runs are, their bowling always keeps them in the game.

Australia Team News & Playing 11
AUS Team News
Steve Smith can be replaced by Moises Henriques. The batter is out of the series due to a concussion. Other than him, we don’t see any scope of changes unless someone is out due to an injury.
AUS Key Players
- Glenn Maxwell - The big man has not fired yet but given the class and quality he poses, he should be able to deliver a match-winning performance pretty soon.
- Marcus Stoinis - Another handy all-rounder who can win matches on his own. He can give quick runs lower in the order and bowl handy overs while picking up wickets as well.
- Josh Hazlewood - Hazlewood has been sensational and the visitors have had no answers to him. With seven wickets already, Hazlewood will look to bag a few more in the coming game.
AUS Team Form
With two wins in two games, Australia are on the verge of closing the series in the third game itself.
Australia Predicted Playing 11
Aaron Finch, Ben McDermott, Moises Henriques, Glenn Maxwell, Josh Inglis, Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Wade (WK), Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Adam Zampa, Mitchell Starc
Sri Lanka Team News & Playing 11
SL Team News
Kusal Mendis is not fully fit yet, while Binura Fernando is down with an illness as well. Sri Lanka could field the same XI they did in the second T20I.
SL Key Players
- Danushka Gunathilka - He will be disappointed that he has not contributed to the team as of yet but he is a good batter and cannot be counted out. He can definitely come good in the coming game.
- Pathum Nissanka - Nissanka has been the best batter in both games. He scored a blistering half-century in the second T20I. He will be keen to continue the form.
- Wanindu Hasaranga - Wanindu Hasaranga is a match winner for Sri Lanka and has played like that. He has been the best bowler for the Islanders and a lot will rest on his performance in the match.
SL Team Form
Sri Lanka cricket is going through a massive slump in all formats.
Sri Lanka Predicted Playing 11
Avishka Fernando, Pathum Nissanka, Charith Asalanka, Dinesh Chandimal (WK), Danushka Gunathilaka, Dasun Shanaka, Chamika Karunaratne, Wanindu Hasaranga, Nuwan Tushara Dushmantha Chameera, Maheesh Theekshana

🏆 Australia vs Sri Lanka Prediction
Sri Lanka have been good in patches but they have not delivered collective performances. Barring Pathum Nissanka, batting has been a big letdown. Australia batters have not scored many runs as well but how long can you stop a power-packed batting lineup like Australia from not scoring big runs? We feel Sri Lanka are in a bad position form wise and we are sticking with Australia as winners.
