BAN vs SL ODI Match Prediction & Betting Tips, Cricket World Cup 2023
Bangladesh lock horns with Sri Lanka in Match 38 of the 2023 Cricket World Cup at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Monday. This game sees ninth take on seventh with both teams producing disappointing tournaments so far. Bangladesh have not won a game since their opening match of the competition whereas Sri Lanka have won two games but have been beaten in both of their last two matches. Read on as we preview this clash. This ODI gets underway at 14:00 local time.
Bangladesh were expected to cause a few upsets in this year’s Cricket World Cup but very few of their players, if any, have lived up to what was anticipated. However, against a Sri Lanka side low on confidence, this could be a good chance for a win.
Sri Lanka have been very unfortunate with injuries across the last couple of months and their bowling attack has had to change on a regular basis. But their batting has been very disappointing and must improve for this game or they will lose again.

BAN vs SL Match Toss Prediction
Three of the four matches at this venue during the 2023 Cricket World Cup have been won by the team batting first so we expect both captains to choose to bat first in this game.
BAN vs SL Pitch Report
This is an excellent batting wicket at the Arun Jaitley Stadium with plenty of pace for the stroke-makers to take advantage of. A par score will be around 360 although there will also be turn for the spinners.
Both the teams are equipped with some quality spinners which can make a difference in the later part of the match as the ball starts to grip well.
Delhi Weather Report
Humidity is forecast to be low across this game although the temperature will be up at 29 degrees at the peak on Monday. No rain is expected at this venue.

Bangladesh Team News
We have not seen too many examples of wholesale changes for Bangladesh across the tournament and, in spite of their poor performances, we would not be surprised if they are unchanged for this fixture. There are no new injuries in the squad.
Bangladesh Key Players
- Litton Das- the 29 year old right-handed opener has already scored two half-centuries in the tournament and contributed another 45 against Pakistan. A big score at the top of the order is needed for his team.
- Mahmudullah- the 37 year old all-rounder has been Bangladesh’s best batter in this competition. He is averaging 68.50 from five innings in the Cricket World Cup 2023 .
- Mushfiqur Rahim - Mushfiqur Rahim has scored 171 runs so far in 7 matches and we are backing him to score well in this match as he has a good batting record against Sri Lanka. In 35 ODIs against SL, Rahim has smashed 1062 runs at an average of 33.18.

- Mehidy Hasan Miraz- the all-rounder was the only one of the bowling attack to pick up at least one wicket against Pakistan but the spinner showed talent to dismiss Abdullah Shafique, Fakhar Zaman and Babar Azam.
- Shakib Al Hasan- the experienced all-rounder has been out of form with his batting during this campaign whereas his bowling has been consistent. He hit 43 against Pakistan and was economical with the ball.

Sri Lanka Team News
There was only one change for Sri Lanka ahead of their heavy defeat to India with Dhananjaya de Silva heading out of the team with Dushan Hemantha coming in. With not many options left in their squad due to injuries, de Silva may well come back in for this match as the same team can not be selected after being dismissed for 55.
Sri Lanka Key Players
- Pathum Nissanka- the right-handed opener has impressed during this 2023 Cricket World Cup and will be desperate to contribute against Bangladesh after a golden duck to the first ball of the innings last Thursday.
- Angelo Mathews- the vastly experienced batting all-rounder was the only one of the top eight batters against India who scored more than a single or a duck. He may well be pushed up the order for this match.
- Sadeera Samarawickrama- Samarawickrama is currently the leading run scorer of the team with 331 runs in 7 matches so far at an impressive strike rate of 103.11. We are backing him to play another high-score innings on this batting track.

- Dilshan Madushanka- although it was an awful day for the team, the left-arm pace bowler dismissed Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer and Suryakumar Yadav in the last game.
- Dushmantha Chameera- if Sri Lanka had been able to call upon the right-arm pacer throughout this campaign then it could well have been more successful. He got the wicket of KL Rahul in Match 33.

Who will win Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka ODI Match?
Although Sri Lanka were completely outplayed by India and struggled throughout with the bat, they have bounced back before. Overall during the tournament they have been better than Bangladesh and we have Sri Lanka as the top side for this match.
🏆 Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka Prediction
After their disastrous batting performance against India, it will be fascinating to see how Sri Lanka get on in this match. Confidence may well be low in the squad but they will be determined to put in a better showing and they have had a good record in this format so far this year. We expect Bangladesh to be competitive but our prediction is Sri Lanka to win
