AUS vs SL: Possible Sri Lanka Playing 11 for 5th T20I, Players Stats for Today’s Dream11 Team Prediction

Sri Lanka playing 11: Sri Lanka have tried everything with no luck. They could have won the 2^nd game of the series that was decided in the super over. Sri Lanka can consider themselves unlucky purely because of the umpiring blunders that cost them a game. They showed immense character in the follow up games as well even after missing their star spinner in Wanindu Hasaranga in their arsenal. Lahiru Kumara and Dushmantha Chameera troubled the Australian batters, Ashton Agar in particular with brilliant pace bowling. It is good that Sri Lanka are trusting Lahiru Kumara even after his inconsistency because Lahiru Kumara has the raw pace to develop into a good bowler.

Team news

• Wanindu Hasaranga’s PCR test results were negative and that’s the reason why he wasn’t picked for the 4th game. If he returns negative on the morning of the 5^th game, he will be available for selection.
• Sri Lanka don’t have much options to choose from and they are likely to stick with the same playing 11.
• After an impressive outing with the ball, Lahiru Kumara will continue as the pace bowling partner alongside Dushmantha Chameera.

Australia vs Sri Lanka Dream11 captain, Vice captain picks from SL

• Pathum Nissanka started well for one more time in the series but couldn’t convert it into a big score in the 4th match.

• Maheesh Theekshana has been pretty economical so far in the series. If Sri Lanka are bowling first, he is a good option for vice captain.
