SL vs BAN Dream11 Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – Bangladesh Tour of Sri Lanka, 3rd T20

Written by: Archana Luthria • 15.07.2025

Match Preview

The rivalry between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh is at its crescendo as Bangladesh looks to win a historic bilateral series against their arch rivals. After losing the first match, Bangladesh made a strong comeback to level the 3-match series.

Sri Lanka will depend on its experienced batting line-up to deliver the goods in this match. Despite having some talented T20 batsmen, the team has often been unable to put up big totals. Bangladesh bowled brilliantly in the previous game to keep the series alive and will hope to do the same in this match as well.

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

The pitch at the Premadasa Stadium is usually balanced and we are expecting a similar surface for this match as well. It has been raining in Colombo and the surface is likely to be moist with some grass, aiding the seamers, especially when the ball is new. We are expecting overcast conditions with more rain here on Wednesday.

SL vs BAN Dream11 Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

Kusal Mendis and Litton Das are our two choices here. Mendis scored a half-century in the first match while Das scored one in the previous game. Both seem to be in decent form.

Batters

Pathum Nissanka is our only pick in this category. He is one of Sri Lanka’s most experienced batsmen and could play a vital role in this game.

All Rounders

Both teams have plenty of all-rounders to choose from. Our picks include Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Charith Asalanka, Rishad Hossain, Dasun Shanaka, and Shamim Hossain.

Bowlers

Since the quicker bowlers are likely to get help here, we are going with Binura Fernando and Shoriful Islam. Maheesh Theekshana comes in as a specialist spinner.

SL vs BAN Captain and Vice-Captain Choices

Captain

We are going with Mehidy Hasan Miraz as the captain of our team. While he hasn’t been in the best of form, Miraz is one of the top all-rounders in the T20 format.

Vice-Captain

Kusal Mendis is the vice-captain of the team. He has plenty of experience playing at this venue and has a good record against Bangladesh.
