Preview

This is a key match between two countries hoping to get their Twenty20 World Cup campaign back on track. For the first time during this tournament, a major match between Sri Lanka and Nepal (SL vs NEP) will be held in Florida.

Bangladesh and South Africa have defeated Sri Lanka (SL) thus far in the competition. In contrast to the one-sided nature of the match against South Africa, the Sri Lankans lost a close battle versus Bangladesh. Sri Lanka will not be in the running for a spot in the Super 8 stages unless they secure a significant victory in runs or balls.

Nepal (NEP) was one of the most intriguing teams entering the competition. The Dutch team outperformed them with the bat and the ball in their debut encounter against the Netherlands. The batsmen from Nepal will be confident in their abilities and eager to show off their skills against the Sri Lankans on what should be a superior surface in Florida.

Pitch Report

Florida's pitch has favored the teams batting first during the day games. Since this is a night match, one can expect the chasing team to hold the sway. Batting will be easier at this venue as the new ball tends to come onto the bat nicely with generous seam movement for the bowlers. A score in the range of 150-165 should be a good target to chase down at this venue.
