IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: Shami removes Asalanka, Hemantha in two balls, Sri Lanka loosing the game

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: At 2:00 PM today, a strong India team plays a struggling Sri Lankan team in Mumbai’s legendary Wankhede Stadium. The final India Cup Final encounter between IND and SL saw Rohit’s team easily defeat their neighbors thanks to a goal from Mohammed Siraj.

With six straight victories, Rohit Sharma’s India are still the only team undefeated in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023. The Men in Blue aim to make history by being the first squad in the competition to go to the semifinals.

Shreyas Iyer, who will be taking on the Lankans on home soil, will be the main focus of attention due to his 134 runs at an average of 33.50 in six previous matches. This year’s World Cup hasn’t seen Shreyas light up the field; instead, opposing teams have been focusing on his well-known vulnerability to short deliveries.

Sri Lanka has seen a wild ride thus far in a tournament marred by injuries. Following three straight losses to South Africa, Pakistan, and Australia, the Lankans recovered to win two of their following three games, including one over the defending world champions, England. But their ambitions of making the World Cup were severely damaged by a loss to Afghanistan in their most recent game.

Sri Lanka has four points and a net run rate of -0.275, which puts them in seventh place on the ICC World Cup Points Table. The team captained by Kusal Mendis will aim to continue winning and to remain in the competition.
