Bangladesh won their most recent ODI, but fell short in the series against Afghanistan last month. They do, however, have a very experienced group of players under Allan Donald’s coaching.

Topmost Picks for BAN vs SL Dream11 Prediction:
Top Picks – Bangladesh
- Mushfiqur Rahim- the vastly experienced batter has more responsibility in this tournament after the injury to Tamim Iqbal. He hit 69 in his last international innings.
- Taskin Ahmed- the 28 year old fast bowler has seen his returns improve a huge amount across all formats with his ODI average down from 30.37 in his career to 19.35 over the last 12 months.
Top Picks – Sri Lanka
- Pathum Nissanka- the right-hander is a very good limited overs player and comes into this tournament after a strong Lanka Premier League campaign.
- Matheesha Pathirana- the 20 year old has played only five international fixtures but big things are expected of him. With an unusual action, he could cause plenty of problems to Bangladesh’s batters.
Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for BAN vs SL Dream11 Team:
Mushfiqur Rahim, Linton Das, Kusal Mendis, Pathum Nissanka, Dimuth Karunaratne, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Shakib Al Hasan(C), Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Dhananjaya de Silva(VC), Maheesh Theekshana, Taskin Ahmed

Towhid Hridoy, Litton Das(VC), Kusal Mendis, Pathum Nissanka(C), Dimuth Karunaratne, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Shakib Al Hasan, Matheesha Pathirana, Dhananjaya de Silva, Maheesh Theekshana, Taskin Ahmed

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:
Captain – Shakib Al Hasan, Pathum Nissanka
Vice-captain – Dhananjaya de Silva, Litton Das

BAN vs SL Probable Winners:
With Afghanistan as the other team in Group B, both sides will be hoping to advance to the next round of this year’s tournament, but will also be aware that a loss in this game will make it much more difficult. We expect a close match with Bangladesh’s experienced players impressing, but we believe Sri Lanka will have enough quality with bat and ball to win. Considering the team combination, Sri Lanka is expected to win this match.
