Australia having just tasted defeat in the world cup 2015, will be all eager to come back into their winning ways in their match against Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka having lost their first game of the tournament against New Zealand, have come back strongly and are looking good to give the pre-tournament favorite, Australia, a stiff competition.
Australia will not have its own way so easily on Sunday, March 8, since Sri Lanka is one sub-continent team which has not looked so overawed by the Australian magic. Sri Lanka may be trailing Australia in their head to head ODI wins - 31-55, but in games against Australia in Australia, the Sri Lankans have a better record since 2000. Sri Lankans have a 12-17 record, which is far better record than India or Pakistan.
Given these stats and of course Sri Lanka’s fabulous win percentage on the Sydney Cricket Ground (the venue for match 32), Sri Lanka will pose a stiff competition for the Aussies.
The pitch at the Sydney Cricket Ground will be slow and spin-friendly, which will again be an advantage for the Sri Lanka’s. There is a chance of rain on Sunday in Sidney, but we hope we get to see a good competitive game of cricket.
