| October 15, 2023 at 12:14 AM
Australia find themselves in a peculiar spot in the World Cup. No wins after two games and their captain looks to be struggling after a tough lead-up to the tournament. They have a bigger challenge now as Sri Lanka have done a fair job against Australia on spinning tracks before. Sri Lanka though are missing players and their injury list gets longer with their captain ruled out of the tournament now.
Date: October 16th, 2023
Time: 2:00 PM IST
Venue: Lucknow
The weather looks pretty clear for the upcoming fixture.
Lucknow tends to spin pretty well but with dew normal at this time of the year batting second will be a better option.

Steve Smith
Australia will be wanting Steve Smith to go big. He is their best player of spin and he has been getting starts but is failing to convert. When the going gets tough he is usually the one they turn to and Australia will want him to step up desperately.
Dhananjaya De Silva
With Dasun Shanaka out, Dhananjaya De Silva is likely to have an increased bit of responsibility. While Shanaka’s batting form was a concern, his presence still made a difference and in his absence, Dhananjaya De Silva, who is likely to lead the side will have to do a lot more than he previously was to get Sri Lanka back on track.
Turning tracks should put Sri Lanka ahead. With players missing and the bowling looking very light though, Australia could back themselves to get past Sri Lanka and register their first win.
