🏆 Sri Lanka vs Netherlands Prediction
Sri Lanka is a strong side against Netherlands and they also have more experience of international cricket. Sri Lanka has also been in confident form as seen recently against Bangladesh where they won the T20I series by 2-1.
Netherlands is equipped with experienced players who were impressive in the ODI World Cup 2023 but beating the Sri Lankan side will be a difficult task for them. SL and NED have played 4 T20I matches against each other and Sri Lanka have won all of them. Netherlands are yet to register a win against Sri Lanka in the T20Is and we expect another win for SL in this warm-up match.
