Sri Lanka will square off against arch-rivals Bangladesh at the Grand Prairie Stadium, Dallas in the 15th match of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 on Saturday. Both of these teams haven’t been in great form in the recent past and they will need to turn the tables.
Sri Lanka was stunned by the Netherlands in the warm-up whereas the Tigers was shocked by the USA in two matches in a recent series. Furthermore, the Island nation lost their opening match against the Proteas by six wickets and it will be almost a must-win game for them.
