Bangladesh is going to play Sri Lanka on 21 March in World Cup Cricket 2007. Before the beginning of World Cup Cricket 2007, hardly anyone gave any importance to this match. However, now, it has become a very important match for Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and India. Much is at stake for all these 3 teams. If Bangladesh wins the match then Bangladesh will move into the Super Eight stage automatically. On the other hand, if Sri Lanka wins then it will create even a bigger drama for Group B of World Cup Cricket 2007.

Both Bangladesh and Sri Lanka have won their opening matches convincingly. Sri Lanka defeated Bermuda with a huge margin while Bangladesh defeated India in style. So, the players of both the teams are expecting to win this match. Yes, on paper, Sri Lanka is much stronger than Bangladesh but Bangladeshi players are in the best form in the history of Bangladeshi cricket.

For Sri Lanka, the key is to ensure that their batsmen can dominate against the Bangladeshi bowlers. If they failed to do it then Sri Lanka can walk in the same road of India.

On the other hand, Bangladeshi bowlers need to restrict Sri Lanka to a low score just as the way they did against India. I just hope that Bangladeshi players don’t lose their confidence in the match. Bangladeshi players are famous for their inconsistency. However, I do believe that this time, it is different.
