Sheikh Zayed Stadium - Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
Kusal Perera is our recommendation for Sri Lanka’s highest run scorer against Namibia. He has 8 international centuries to his name. Wanindu Hasaranga is our tip for Sri Lanka’s top wicket taker. The spinner has troubled many top level batters over the past 18 months.
Captain Gerhard Erasmus averages 34.79 in IT20s and is a strong choice for Namibia’s highest run scorer against Sri Lanka. With the ball, left-arm paceman Jan Frylinck has impressed in the warm-up games and is our tip for Namibia’s top wicket taker in this game.
Wanindu Hasaranga is an exceptional spin bowler and also a useful batter. We expect him to be on top of his game and to take the Player of The Match Award.

Sri Lanka vs Namibia Match Prediction & Betting Tips, T20 World Cup 2021
Sri Lanka and Namibia go head to head in the First Round in Group A on Monday evening. This is match 4 of the 2021 T20 World Cup and the first game for both of these sides. Sri Lanka won the tournament in 2014 and are currently ranked 10th. Namibia have never previously qualified for a World Cup in this format and are ranked 19th. This match begins at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium at 18:00 local time
As former T20 World Cup Champions, there will be a certain level of expectation around the Sri Lanka side. However, they have had a turbulent 2021 and are by no means guaranteed to win this match.
Namibia have quietly built a strong side ahead of the 2021 World Cup. Sri Lanka at their best would probably be too much, but this Sri Lanka side are certainly beatable and Namibia will fancy their chances.

Top order batter and former captain Kusal Perera is the only injury doubt after he injured his hamstring last month. We expect him to be fit enough to take his place opening in this match. IPL players Wanindu Hasaranga and Dushmantha Chameera left the competition early to prepare for the T20 World Cup and will be fresh.
SL Key Players
Kusal Perera- the aggressive left-handed opener has often carried this team over the last 12 months. Freed of the captaincy we expect to see some big scores.
Wanindu Hasaranga- the bowling all-rounder has taken to all formats of international cricket very smoothly over recent years. He is a wicket taking bowler who also keeps the run-rate down.
Dushmantha Chameera- the fast bowler has taken 31 wickets in IT20s and has been dismissing batters in the warm-up games.
SL Team Form
Sri Lanka were beaten 3-0 against South Africa last month but have picked up some strong results in the warm-up fixtures.
SL vs NAM Dream11 Team Prediction, Captain, Vice Captain
Wicket-keeper
Dinesh Chandimal (9) and Kusal Perera (9) will be our wicket-keepers. Both have plenty of international runs to their name.
Batsmen
Craig Williams (9.5), Avishka Fernando (9) and Charith Asalanka (8.5) are our batsmen. Williams keeps racking up the big scores of late.
All-rounders
Wanindu Hasaranga (9.5), David Wiese (9.5) and Jan Frylinck (8.5) will be our all-rounders. Both Hasaranga and Wiese have played in top level franchise leagues over recent months.
Bowlers
Dushmantha Chameera (9), Bernard Scholtz (8.5) and Ruben Trumpleman (8.5) will be our bowlers. Chameera is the leading pace bowler in Sri Lanka’s armoury.
Captain/Vice-captain
Wanindu Hasaranga will be captain, Craig Williams his deputy

Namibia Team News & Playing 11
NAM Team News
In spite of having a squad with some players who may be playing in their final T20 World Cup, Namibia have no significant injury worries to scupper their preparations for this match. We expect the side to be a mix of experienced and youthful players.
NAM Key Players
Gerhard Erasmus- the captain is a very reliable presence in the batting order for Namibia. He is most likely to anchor the innings with other batters playing aggressively around him.
Craig Williams- the top order batter has been in excellent form with the bat since Namibia arrived in the region. He has hit 5 half-centuries in IT20s.
Jan Frylinck- the left-arm pace bowler took 6-24 in a warm-up game at the beginning of the month. When he gets on a roll he is nearly impossible to halt.
NAM Team Form
The Namibians have looked very strong in the warm-up fixtures for the T20 World Cup. However, they have never been tested in a T20 World Cup fixture against strong opposition.
Namibia Predicted Playing 11
Stephan Baard, Zane Green (wk), Craig Williams, Gerhard Erasmus (c), David Wiese, JJ Smit, Michael van Lingen, Jan Frylinck, Bernard Scholtz, Ruben Trumpleman, Ben Shikongo

Who will win Sri Lanka vs Namibia T20 Match?
There is batting depth in both batting line-ups with Kusal Perera and Craig Williams the players with the best long-term records in this format.
Kusal Perera, Dinesh Chandimal and Pathum Nissanka are our tips to be the top batsmen for Sri Lanka. Perera and Chandimal have plenty of international level experience.
For Namibia, we recommend Craig Williams, Gerhard Erasmus and Zane Green. Williams and Erasmus have both put up big scores since arriving in the region.

We are predicting this game to be a lot closer than the bookmakers are predicting. Sri Lanka have been very hit and miss over the last year or so and you never know which side is going to turn up. A strong Namibia will cause Sri Lanka problems but overall we expect to see Sri Lanka win the game.
