Sri Lanka vs West Indies Team Preview
Sri Lanka
The World Cup will be held later this year, and Sri Lanka has already qualified for it in excellent form. They will be relieved to have completed the qualification process, and they will now work to advance in the Asia Cup, where they are the defending champions.
The batting unit chased down the target of 166 with 9 wickets remaining, making very easy work of the score. A 103-run opening stand was put on by the starters. The Sri Lankans won handily thanks to Pathum Nissanka’s unbeaten 101 runs.
West Indies
Since they did not make it to the ICC World Cup 2023, the West Indies are in total disarray. They were severely unhappy with their performance because they were unable to win any games during the Super Six stage until the last game. But as they were able to win their first game against Oman, they began to resemble the old West Indies.
The batting unit needed to succeed because they performed horribly in the qualifications. With starter Brandon King setting the tone for them by striking a well-made century, they comfortably chased down the score. Shai Hope also contributed, shooting a solid 63 off a 65.
Shai Hope(w/c), Johnson Charles, Kyle Mayers, Roston Chase, Keemo Paul, Nicholas Pooran, Kevin Sinclair, Keacy Carty, Romario Shepherd, Brandon King, Akeal Hosein

ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifiers 2023 Cricket Prediction | Match 9: Sri Lanka vs West Indies[/caption]
The team that wins the toss will attempt to win the toss and bowl first given the characteristics of the ground and the pitch.
The likelihood of rain appears to be fairly high and the weather appears to be quite cloudy. The temperature range between the maximum and minimum will be between 25°C and 12°C.
Given how many games have already been played there, the field’s reputation for generating low-scoring pitches will not alter.
