Topmost Picks for SL vs AFG Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Sri Lanka

• Pathum Nissanka- Pathum Nissanka didn’t stay long in the first T20I and was dismissed for a mere six, however, he had an extraordinary run in the ODI series where he also whacked a double century.
• Matheesha Pathirana- In Matheesha Pathirana, Sri Lanka have got a genuine match winner. Pathirana changed the game in favour of Sri Lanka

Top Picks – Afghanistan

• Rahmanullah Gurbaz- Rahmanullah Gurbaz’s form is becoming a big concern for Afghanistan. The star batter has always performed in Afghanistan’s wins and lack of runs from him has hurt Afghanistan’s chances.
• Fazalhaq Farooqi- Fazalhaq Farooqi continued his ILT20 form and rattled Sri Lanka with a three wicket haul in the first T20I. The left arm seamer will be eyeing another good outing.
