SL vs BAN Match Pitch Report
The Sharjah pitch is well known for being a sticky and tacky surface. It is by no means a fast bowler’s paradise but the spinners will enjoy it and the batters will have their work cut out.

SL Team News
After what could have been a tricky group stage in the First Round of the T20 World Cup, Sri Lanka have come through with their confidence built and all their players fully fit. The tough tests will begin with this match against Bangladesh.
SL Key Players
- Kusal Perera- the experienced keeper-batsman found a perfect situation to re-find his batting form against the Netherlands. He came into the tournament with a slight niggle but now looks fine.
- Maheesh Theekshana- the young off-spinner has 8 wickets in the tournament already and has benefited from batters taking him lightly.
- Wanindu Hasaranga- the leg-spinner caused problems throughout the group stage and also showed his worth with the bat.
After coming into the tournament in poor form, Sri Lanka have now got three successive victories behind them.
Sri Lanka Predicted Playing 11
Kusal Perera (wk), Pathum Nissanka, Dinesh Chandimal, Avishka Fernando, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Dasun Shanaka (c), Chamika Karunaratne, Wanindu Hasaranga, Dushmantha Chameera, Maheesh Theekshana, Lahiru Kumara

BAN Team News
With all of their first choice XI available, this BANia team picks itself. That is not to say that there is a big gulf between them and the rest, but this side has the required experience and big match mentality required for the huge moments which are sure to emerge in this game.
BAN Key Players
- KL Rahul - The opening batter had a very strong Test tour of England and followed it up by just missing out on the Orange Cap in the IPL
- Shardul Thakur - The bowling all-rounder also carried top form from the England tour into the UAE leg of the IPL. He picked up at least one wicket in each game in the UAE.
- Jasprit Bumrah - BANia’s number one pace bowler struggled for wickets in the early games of this year’s IPL but was back to his best over recent weeks.
Although BANia lost their last two IT20 games to Sri Lanka, they had a much weakened team on display. Their performances in the warm-up fixtures shows they are a serious contender for the T20 World Cup 2021 trophy.
Bangladesh Predicted Playing 11
Liton Das, Mohammad Naim, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmudullah (c), Afif Hossain, Nurul Hasan (wk), Mahedi Hasan, Mohammad Saifuddin, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman
