ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 – Australia vs Sri Lanka – 22nd Match Prediction
In the previous match, Australia had to fight its way out of a difficult situation against South Africa, but they eventually won. It now meets Sri Lanka in a bid to qualify for one of the two T20 World Cup semi-final positions available in 2021. Sri Lanka had a difficult first match against Bangladesh and appeared to be in a difficult situation. However, a superb batting performance enabled it to easily chase down a difficult target.
This match could be closer than it appears because Australia and Sri Lanka are two sides who frequently outperform their form in ICC competitions. On the 28th of October 2021, the match will be held at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai.

Australia vs Sri Lanka Team Previews
Australia (Match Odds – 1.33)
Team Australia would relish the opportunity to play this match in Dubai. That is the surface where its batters will most likely find the ball coming on to the bat, and while spinners will play a role, their impact appears to be reduced in comparison to the other World Cup venues.
Glenn Maxwell, who is coming into the T20 World Cup on the back of some outstanding form in the IPL, which was played at the same site, will be Australia’s biggest threat in this match. His fight with Theekshana and Hasaranga is going to be crucial.

The bowling in Australia is outstanding. Hazelwood, Cummins, and Starc will take on the Sri Lankans with vigour, while Zampa and Maxwell will be the spinners. Whatever the circumstances, this Australian assault has the resources to adapt and exploit them.
Australia T20 Squad
David Warner, Aaron Finch(c), Mitchell Marsh, Steven Smith, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Wade(wk), Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood, Kane Richardson, Ashton Agar, Mitchell Swepson, Josh Inglis
Predicted XI: Aaron Finch (c), David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Steven Smith, Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Wade (wk), Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood
Sri Lanka (Match Odds – 3.35)
To beat Bangladesh, Sri Lanka had to play at the top of its game. That victory would have given them a lot of confidence. The batting displays of Asalanka and Rajapaksa were eye-opening and demonstrated what Sri Lanka is capable of when it is at its best. It is quite doubtful that Sri Lanka’s batsmen will perform in the same manner against Australia’s attack.
High-pace bowling has already caused problems for Sri Lanka’s batting, and we will not bet on it in this encounter.
If Sri Lanka’s team is to be competitive, their bowlers will play a critical role. Hasaranga and Theekshana will pose a challenge to the batters in the middle overs, while Lahiru Kumara bowls with tremendous pace and could pick up some early wickets. There’s also a chance that Akila Danajaya will get a game to try and exploit the Aussies’ limitations against spin.
Sri Lanka T20 Squad
Kusal Perera(wk), Pathum Nissanka, Charith Asalanka, Avishka Fernando, Wanindu Hasaranga, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Dasun Shanaka(c), Chamika Karunaratne, Dushmantha Chameera, Binura Fernando, Lahiru Kumara, Maheesh Theekshana, Akila Dananjaya, Dhananjaya de Silva, Dinesh Chandimal
Predicted XI: Dasun Shanaka (c), Kusal Perera (wk), Pathum Nissanka, Charith Asalanka, Avishka Fernando, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Wanindu Hasaranga, Chamika Karunaratne, Dushmantha Chameera, Binura Fernando, Lahiru Kumara

Pitch and Weather Conditions
The weather in Dubai has been excellent. The team that bats first is given a decent surface that is flat but slightly slower. During the second half of the contest, the dew settles down and makes batting much simpler. This is why, in Dubai, chasing teams have won 12 of the last 13 matches.
Australia vs Sri Lanka Match Prediction
We’re going with Australia to win this match, but we recommend keeping some cash on hand for in-play betting. Right now, the odds favour Australia, but that will alter during the match, and you should be able to find better odds. The fact that Australia has a superior bowling assault is the main reason why we believe it will win this match in the end.
