BAN vs SL| ODI World Cup 2023 | Pre - Match Analysis
The match 38th of the ODI World Cup 2023 will have Bangladesh play against Sri Lanka at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. After winning the first match of their campaign, The Tigers have had a torrid time of it, losing six in a row, while the Lankans Lions have suffered five defeats in the flagship tournament too. Despite the dearth of quality performances between both Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, a spot in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 could propel them to bring their A-game forward on November 6.
Pitch Report
The pitches at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi during the ODI World Cup 2023 have been a batting paradise if there ever was one. While the average first-innings score at this venue is just 245, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka wouldn’t have a better opportunity to put a total in excess of 300 while batting first, to put the opposition under pressure later on.
