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. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

Sri Lanka won the T20 World Cup under the captaincy of Lasith Malinga. A decade ago today, Sri Lanka etched its name in World Cup history! To commemorate this special occasion, here’s a heartfelt message from our bowling legend, Rangana Herath.#Remember2014 #T20WorldCup pic.twitter.com/M64Nq4bXxA — Sri Lanka Cricket 🇱🇰 (@OfficialSLC) April 6, 2024 India vs Sri Lanka, T20 World Cup 2014 final match status If we tell you about the match, while batting first, India lost the wicket of opener Ajinkya Rahane (3) in the very second over. However, after this Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma made a partnership of 60 runs in 54 balls. After Rohit was out after scoring 29 runs in 26 balls, Yuvraj Singh came to bat at number 4. Yuvraj struggled to score runs and was caught by Thisara Perera off the bowling of Nuwan Kulasekara after scoring just 11 runs in 21 balls. So after Yuvraj was out in the 19th over, MS Dhoni came to bat and he too could not show much magic. Dhoni remained unbeaten on 4 runs in 7 balls, but Virat Kohli played an inning of 77 runs in 58 balls, due to which India was able to score 130 runs at the loss of 4 wickets in 20 overs. Kohli was run out on the last ball of the innings. After this, when Sri Lanka came to chase this target, India took the wickets of Kusal Perera (5) and T Dilshan (18) in the powerplay. Whereas Mahela Jayawardene (24) and Lahiru Thirimane (7) were out after getting a good start. But Kumar Sangakkara played an unbeaten inning of 52* runs in 35 balls and returned after winning the match for his team. Apart from this, Thisara Perera also remained unbeaten after scoring 23* runs. After this victory, Sri Lanka also avenged its defeat against India in the World Cup 2011 final. So after winning the final, Sri Lankan veteran players Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene also said goodbye to T20 cricket.
