Sri Lanka cricket team is ready to face Australia for
three T20 international matches in the later of these months. They arrived in Australia
after a successful t20 series against Pakistan. Sri Lanka won all t20 matches and
now they are very confident to face the Australian t20 side. They left out four
players from their Pakistan squad and recall Lasith Malinga, Niroshan
Dickwella, Kusal Perera and Kusal Medis. All the recalled players were performed
well against the New Zealand series which was held in the last august. At the same time, they left out Minod Bhanuka, Angelo Perera, Lahiru Madushanka and Sadeera
Samarawickrama.
Sri Lanka was played brilliantly against Pakistan in their
home soil. Danushka Gunathilaka scored 57 runs in the first t20 match and
Bhanuka Rajapaksha scored a quick 77 in the second t20 match. These individual
performances were helped them to put a big total on the scoreboard. Sri Lankan
bowlers controlled Pakistan batsmans so nicely and they won first two t20
matches very easily. Sri lanka only scored 147 runs in the third t20 match and
Oshada Fernando scored magnificent 76 for that total. Wanidu Hasaranga
delivered sharp spells in all three matches and who won the man of the
series for his brilliant bowling.
At the same time, Australia recalled Steve Smith, Aaron
Finch, Mitchell Starc and David Warner to their t20 squad again. Australia has
introduced powerful side to face young Sri Lankan squad. They have lost all t20
series against Sri Lanka in their home soil. In 2017, Sri Lanka won the t20
series for 2-1. Australia has Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc as fast bowlers.
Adam Zampa will play as the main spinner. Glenn Maxwell is waiting for Strong
their middle order.
Sri Lanka will play their first practice match against Australia
Prime Minister’s XI in the next 24. The first official t20 match will be started on
27th of October in Adelaide Oval Cricket Ground. The second t20 the match will in Brisbane Cricket Ground and the third match be in Melbourne
Cricket Ground.
I hope this series will be both fighting one. Sri Lanka have
Lasith Malinga as a gun and Australia have some experienced players. The new
young players of Sri Lanka playing some magical cricket and they are waiting to
do their best.
Australian cricket pitches are good in fast and bounce.
Therefore this will be a challenge for Sri Lankan batsman. Everybody is looking for Bhanuka Rajapaksha and Oshada
Fernando’s performances. I think this is a huge experience for Sri Lankan team
for upcoming t20 world cup and which was also held in 2020 October in Austarlia
