AUS vs SL, 19th Match Preview

Australia and Sri Lanka are set to take on each other in the 19th Match of the World Cup. Australia did not really have a good start to the tournament as they faced a heavy defeat against New Zealand. No one really stood up for the Aussies in that encounter and they were really poor both with the bat and ball. On the contrary, Sri Lanka, put up a clinical show against Ireland and enjoyed a comprehensive victory by 9 wickets. Kusal Mendis played a special knock to help the reigning Asian Champions get over the line. Sri Lanka comes in with the confidence of a win in their last game, while the Aussies are under pressure to make up for the damage that happened to them in their last game.
