NZ vs SL Match Prediction- Who Will Win Today’s World Cup Match Between New Zealand and Sri Lanka World Cup, 42nd Match - Cricket Winner

A lot rides on this game. New Zealand’s result will be eagerly watched by both Afghanistan and Pakistan, who will later know how far qualification is after the fixture. New Zealand started the tournament really well but are stumbling now. Injuries have affected them badly but Kane Williamson’s return and form will be a boost.

Sri Lanka are into their final game of the tournament and will want to go out strong. They were on the receiving end of a tough game against Bangladesh, full of controversy. Angelo Mathews, the first to be timed out in International Cricket will want to make amends in what could be his last ODI.

NZ vs SL Key Players

Mitchell Santner

Mitchell Santner has been a silent star for New Zealand in the tournament. On a flat track though and with small boundaries he will be in the pump. With Sri Lanka good against spin he will be faced with a challenge here.

Angelo Mathews

Angelo Mathews was dismissed in the most unfortunate of manners in the previous game. In what could be his last World Cup game, Angelo Mathews will be hoping to go out with a bang after a tough dismissal.
