SL-ET vs BD-ET Dream11 : Sri Lanka Emerging Team look to continue their ascendancy in the cricketing fraternity after impressing against South Africa recently
Advertisement
Coming off a massively successful series in South Africa, one which involved them, South Africa Emerging Team and University Sports South Africa, Sri Lanka Emerging Team make an advent in this series looking to resonate the same compelling showing. Starting today, they and Bangladesh Emerging Team will be clashing heads against each other in a three match ODI series followed by a two match test series.
The series which lasts till August 24th will see the two sides square off on Sunday, an encounter which Sri Lanka Emerging Team will make a foray into as the firm favourites. They ended up pummelling South Africa Emerging Team in a long, hectic and gruelling series, one which saw them square off against USSA in the summit clash, an encounter where SL ended up prevailing to win the title.
Up against Bangladesh today, Sri Lanka’s emerging bunch of players will be looking to make a name for themselves as they look to make a breakthrough into the international team. The emerging series features the emerging teams of the two countries, squads which are aimed at successfully transitioning players from the domestic arena to the international stage.
Elsewhere for a clearly inferior Bangladesh outfit, this series looks set to be an arduous one, three fixtures where they’ll be massively tested by a complete Sri Lanka side. We don’t see them winning a single match in this series with Sri Lanka going onto dominate their opponents and complete a sweep at the end of the three contests.
Pitch Conditions And Toss
Although a relatively unknown entity, given by the recent matches played here, this surface should offer something for both the batsmen and bowlers. The new ball will move about before the surface eventually settles down and sees the runs pour by at will on this wicket. Expect the spinners to come into operation in the second part of the match with this being a wicket where the side winning the toss will be opting to bat first on.

Wicket-Keeper for SL-ET vs BD-ET Dream11
With 73 runs in his previous three encounters, Sandun Weerakkody from Sri Lanka is our pick over here. The wicket-keeper has been in good touch recently and along with his involvement in the side’s dismissals, roping in points through catches and stumpings, we envisage him getting a solid bagful of points in this one.
We have also opted for Minod Bhanuka from the side given the opening slot he occupies with these two bound to pile on the runs inside the first powerplay overs.
Batsmen for SL-ET vs BD-ET Dream11
The main reason for Sri Lanka’s success in South Africa was the immense depth the side possessed in their batting order, something which allowed them to play off the deviating ball comfortably and pile on runs on the scoreboard. With 1,257 runs in domestic cricket, we are choosing Shammu Ahsan as the first pick from the side along with Pathum Nissanka.
Elsewhere from Bangladesh Emerging Team we have decided to get in only Saif Hassan with us not expecting them to massively hamper Sri Lanka’s stellar bowling unit today. Both can bowl ore than effective offspin as well, something which will prove extremely successful on this wicket with the ball gripping on the surface and squarely turning to perturb the batsmen.
Afif Hossain is our only pick from Bangladesh with him having scored 825 runs at the domestic circuit.
All-Rounders for SL-ET vs BD-ET Dream11
This is the department where the best players from the outfits are available. We had one clear reasoning when building out this facet of our side, opting for names who are going to encapsulate their skill set with both the bat and ball to indulge us in a slew of points.
And it’s this narrative which sees us get in number three and number 4 bat, Charith Asalanka and Kamindu Mendis from the side.
Bowling Order for SL-ET vs BD-ET Dream11
The 10 wickets in 99 matches see Amila Aponso come in for us as we go ahead with an entire spinning trio of picks from the side. His left arm offspin is going to be extremely treacherous for the batsmen to get under, inducing false shots in them and we see him being someone who snares up wickets at will today.
From Bangladesh we have gotten in Yeasin Arafat and Robiul Haque to complete our side.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Ashan is our side’s captain while we have chosen Mendis as the vice-captain.
