Zimbabwe vs Sri Lanka prediction

Sri Lanka’s depth of batting proved decisive in the first ODI as a big partnership of 137 for the sixth wicket elevated the tourists to 298/6 in their innings. This wound up being just enough to win, with seven runs the margin of victory. Zimbabwe fought valiantly but collapsed in the final over, Dilshan Madushanka picking up three wickets in that 50th over.

There isn’t much separating these two teams and Zimbabwe certainly have reason for optimism moving forward. However, that lower order quality we mentioned above which Sri Lanka possesses is extremely important across this 50-over format and on what should be another good surface for batting, that makes backing Sri Lanka to edge another close one warranted.
