Pitch Report :

The surface at the Ekana Cricket Stadium is a batting-friendly surface, and is expected to assist the Batters once again here. Pacers might get some help towards the latter half of the match while spinners may come in handy in the middle overs. If the first few overs batsmen get out with patience without losing wickets, then they can score runs at a fast pace in the middle overs and the end overs. Along with this, the due factor is often seen in the field of Mohali. In such a situation, whichever team wins the toss today can decide to bowl first.

The average first innings score on this wicket is 265 runs.

Weather Report :

The temperature is expected to hover around 32°C on the Saturday with 40% humidity and 10-11 km/hr wind speed. There are no chances of precipitation during the game.

Preview :

In the 19th match of the ODI World Cup 2023, Netherlands will go head-to-head against Sri Lanka at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. This match is going to be very important for both the teams because both the teams have lost both their starting matches, specially Sri Lanka.

The Netherlands team have the confidence of a win against South Africa in the last match. The biggest strength of the Netherlands team is their variety in the bowling department. The likes of Aryan Dutt, Paul van Meekeran, Logan van Beek, and Roelof van der Merwe add a lot of flexibility and dynamism to the bowling department. The concern for the team will however be their batting order. The top order has not yet delivered and the onus has mostly been on the middle order to take the team to a respectable total.

The Sri Lankan team's batting has looked decent, however, it is their bowling that has let them down so far in this tournament. The absence of Dasun Shanaka will also be a thing of concern for the team. The team management will be hoping that they mend their holes pretty soon and earn their first win of the tournament in this match.

The Netherlands team will be coming into this match with a lot of confidence from their gutsy win against South Africa. Quite surprisingly, the Netherlands are currently above Sri Lanka in the points table. With two points from three matches, the Netherlands are in the ninth position in the points table. They will be looking to ride the momentum and pull off another upset in the tournament.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, are still searching for their first win. They have played decent cricket in parts but have failed to capitalise on the crucial moments so far. The absence of Dasun Shanaka as the leader of the team is a big concern for the team. However, the way the Lucknow wicket has behaved might favour the Asian team as they have a plethora of world-class spinners in their ranks. Sri Lanka will be eager to get their first win of the campaign under the belt and the stage is all set for a cracker of a contest.
