Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka match of Super Eight round in Twenty20 world cup will be held at the New Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg on 18 September. For both Bangladesh and Sri Lanka the upcoming match will be second match in Super Eight round. No doubt, Sri Lanka is favorite in the match. To tell the truth, the way Sri Lanka is playing in Twenty20 world cup seems that Sri Lanka is going to play their second world cup final this year. At this moment Sri Lanka is playing their first match against Pakistan. It is true that the ongoing match is really very important for Sri Lanka and if they lose today’s match then, for sure, Sri Lanka will be under huge pressure before they take on Bangladesh tomorrow.
On the other hand, Bangladesh has recently suffered a crushing defeat to Australia in their first match in Super Eight round. Bangladesh started their Twenty20 world cup campaign in style defeating favorite West Indies in their first match. Even in the second match against South Africa their performance was impressive. However, after the 9 wicket defeat to Australia, it will be very hard for Bangladesh to get their rhythm back in the next match against Sri Lanka.
For Sri Lanka, it should not be so hard to defeat Bangladesh but it is also true that Bangladesh has some young but talented cricketers who can take away the match from Sri Lanka. Specially, Captain Mohammad Ashraful, Aftab Ahmed, Tamim Iqbal and another young opener Nazimuddin have fame for their big hits. For Sri Lanka, Sanath Jayasuria and Captain Mahela Jayawardene are in good form and that is why, Sri Lanka looks favorite in the tournament. I hope to see an interesting match between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. I think, all cricket fans hope the same. Now, let us see if Bangladesh can cause another upset against Sri Lanka.
