Former Indian player Aakash Chopra believes that Sri Lanka can win the match against Bangladesh in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. According to Aakash Chopra, Sri Lanka is a strong contender to win this match. This match will be played in Dallas on 8 June.

Let us tell you, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh are in Group C along with South Africa, Nepal and Netherlands. In their first match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, Sri Lanka had to face defeat against South Africa by six wickets. Sri Lanka’s performance was very poor against South Africa. At the same time, this is the first match of the Bangladesh team in this tournament season.

Aakash Chopra shared a video on his official YouTube channel in which he said, ‘The match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh will be very exciting and it will be played in Dallas. Sri Lanka had to face defeat in their first match. They played their first match on this pitch. This is their first match for Bangladesh. They had performed very disappointingly in the warm-up match against India.

I think Sri Lanka has a slight edge in this match. This battle is also similar to India-Pakistan and England Australia match. You get the Naagin dance in this match. So it will be really good to watch this match.

It is very important for Sri Lanka to bat well: Aakash Chopra

Aakash Chopra further said, ‘I think the Dallas pitch is very good. This pitch is not as bad as it is being criticized. Sri Lanka’s bowling is very good. All their bowlers will definitely want to leave their mark in the upcoming match.

However, Sri Lanka’s batsmen will have to bat well. Talking about Bangladesh, they will also have to bat well because Sri Lanka’s bowlers are in great form at the moment. This is a battle of batting versus batting. Whichever team bats better will win the match.
