SL vs BAN Dream11 Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – Bangladesh Tour of Sri Lanka, 3rd ODI

Written by: Archana Luthria • 07.07.2025

Match Preview

The rivalry between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh is getting interesting with each passing game between them. The current 3-match ODI series is on a knife’s edge, with both teams winning one match each.

Bangladesh hasn’t batted that well but the bowlers did a fine job of defending a modest target in the previous match. Sri Lanka is a stronger side, at least on paper. But they will need to implement themselves better on the field if they want to win here.

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

We are expecting a bowler-friendly wicket for this match. It has been raining here over the last few days and there will be some moisture under the surface. The bowlers, especially the seamers, will get movement off the seam and the batsmen need to be careful while selecting their shots.

The pitch does get slightly better to bat on as the game progresses but overall we can expect a low-scoring game. The weather is likely to remain overcast and we may see some rain through the course of the match.

SL vs BAN Dream11 Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

We are selecting Kusal Mendis in this category. He scored a half-century in the previous match and seems to be in fine form.

Batters

Najmul Hossain Shanto, Kamindu Mendis, Janith Liyanage, and Parvez Emon are the top choices here. While the batting hasn’t been the best on this tour, these are quite experienced batsmen and could play an important role.

All Rounders

Both teams have some quality all-rounders to choose from. We are going with Wanindu Hasaranga, Charith Asalanka, and Mehidy Hasan Miraz.

Bowlers

Tanzid Hasan Sakib and Asitha Fernando are the two seamers we are selecting. We are also picking up Tanvir Islam.

SL vs BAN Captain and Vice-Captain Choices

Captain

Wanindu Hasaranga has bowled well in this series and is the leading wicket-taker as well. He is also a dependable batsman lower down the order. We are therefore selecting him as the captain of our team.

Vice-Captain

Charith Asalanka is our choice as the vice-captain. He is a quality all-rounder as well and can earn points throughout the match.

SL vs BAN Team Expert Advice

Since the pitch is expected to be difficult to bat on, we are going with only 5 specialist batsmen for this match. Luckily for us, the two all-rounders we have selected are not only quality bowlers but can also bat well, and they bring balance to the team. The bowling attack is pretty balanced as well, thanks to the presence of two specialist seamers.
