England vs Sri Lanka Preview
This is a knockout game for both sides as the loser will have very little chance of qualifying for the semis. I expect England to win but given the odds, there is little value in that. There may well be value in backing Sri Lanka.

- England have lost 3 of their last 4 matches.
- Sri Lanka have lost 3 of their last 4 matches.
- Sri Lanka’s Sadeera Samarawickrama scored 91* in his last match.
Head to Head
Over their last four matches against each other, England and Sri Lanka have won two each. However, England have won the last two with the last game being played in July 2021.
England Form
England are in big trouble coming into this match as their defence of the World Cup title seems to be falling to tatters. Currently, England are second from bottom with one win and three defeats in their four games.
Last time England lost by 229 runs to South Africa. The Proteas batted first, amassing a massive 399 runs in 50 overs. England had no chance of chasing that score as they lost early wickets.
A lower-order recovery is the only thing that stopped the English from being bowled out for under 100.
England Injuries & Team News
England need to find a way to get a win here. They will select their strongest side as defeat will be all but the end of their title defence.
Sri Lanka Form
Sri Lanka have the exact same record as England with one win in four games. This is a must-win for both sides as the loser has no chance of making the semis.
Sri Lanka’s sole win came in their last outing as they beat the Netherlands by five wickets. Chasing 262 to win, Sri Lanka started slowly but Sadeera Samarawickrama’s 91 ensured a win with 10 balls to spare.
Sri Lanka Injuries & Team News
Sri Lanka will be at full strength in a game that is pretty much a knockout game.
Verdict
I am backing Sri Lanka to upset the odds with a win. Sadeera Samarawickrama is tipped to top score for Sri Lanka.
