Read Original Content: SL vs WI Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report, Player Stats & Injury Updates For 2nd ODI of West Indies tour of Sri Lanka 2024

Sri Lanka will face West Indies in the 2nd ODI of the West Indies tour of Sri Lanka, 2024 on Wednesday, October 23, 2024, at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele. This article will cover match details, pitch report, playing XI, player stats, Dream11 predictions and fantasy cricket tips for the SL vs WI match.

Match Preview

Sri Lanka heads into the second ODI full of confidence after securing a five-wicket victory in the first match, looking to extend their lead and possibly seal the series.

Having already won the T20I series 2-1, Sri Lanka will be keen to continue their dominance in the ODI format as well. The hosts are showing good form and seem determined to replicate their success across both formats.

West Indies, on the other hand, have struggled throughout the tour. They lost the T20I series and followed that with a disappointing performance in the rain-affected first ODI.

The match was reduced, and West Indies, chasing 235, were restricted to 185/4, falling short of the target. This second ODI is a crucial, must-win game for them to stay alive in the series and avoid yet another series defeat.

With the pressure on, the West Indies need to deliver a strong, all-around performance to keep their hopes alive, while Sri Lanka will be focused on securing the series with another solid display.

Pitch Report

The pitch at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium is generally favorable for batters, offering good pace and bounce, making it ideal for stroke play. With an average first-inning score of 251, teams that bat first tend to have the upper hand.

Early in the match, pacers may find some swing due to the conditions, particularly with the new ball, while spinners come into play as the pitch slows down during the middle overs.

As the match progresses, spin becomes more influential, especially in the later stages. Captains winning the toss are likely to bat first and aim to post a substantial total to pressure the opposition.
