India vs Sri Lanka Prediction & Betting Tips - ICC World Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in Cricket Predictions
India have only lost one of their games in this ICC World Cup. That was against England last Sunday and it's possible they might just end up meeting them in the semi-finals. The Indians come into this game on 13 points, one behind leaders Australia. Both teams play their final game on the same day and a win for India in this match will see them finish top if Australia lose to South Africa in the day/night match. India battled back well from the loss to England with a win over Bangladesh on Tuesday. Rohit Shama continued his incredible form in this tournament with his fourth century. That's taken him to 544 runs at an average of 90.67. With Virat Kohli having hit five half-centuries (he must be due a century soon), India have a batting line-up that gives them a chance to win any game they play. It's not all about batting though with Jasprit Bumrah having taken 14 wickets.
Sri Lanka have only won three of their eight games. They won't be fans of English weather after two abandoned matches where wins could have changed their disappointing campaign. They managed a good win over England but haven't been able to show a great deal of consistency in this tournament.and followed that win with a nine wicket loss to South Africa. They beat West Indies in their last match but Malinga aside, their bowling line-up might not cause India too many problems. Go for India to get the win in this match.
