Apart from one win in the T20Is, Sri Lanka’s recent run is definitely not worth remembering. They have struggled, to say the least, in all of the away matches they have played of late and a few of the reasons for that have been pretty unfortunate. Putting those factors behind, Sri Lanka have managed to show glimpses of brilliance, but those glimpses have unluckily not been enough for them.

In a bid to get one consolation win over West Indies in this ongoing series, Sri Lanka will take the field for the one final time on this tour. West Indies, on the other hand, have already won the series and might experiment a bit as far as their team combination is concerned. We expect this match to be a lot closer than the other two have been. The match is to be played at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua, on 14th March 2021.

Date -14 March 2021

Time – 19:00:00, GMT +5:30

Venue – Sir Vivian Richards Stadium – Antigua, Antigua And Barbuda

WI vs SL Toss Prediction

If West Indies win the toss we expect them to chase for the third successive game, Sri Lanka on the other hand will be keen to mix it up and see if their luck changes!

Pitch Report

The pitch will certainly be similar to the last match, expect a slow turner often seen in Sri Lanka’s backyard!

Weather Report

It will be partly cloudy but temperatures up in the mid to high twenties in Antigua.

ndia was given a very rude shock by England as it realized that it has a lot of work left to do before the T20 World Cup in October. The difference in the preparation of the two teams was stark as England came out with its strongest team with an intent to make a statement.

India on the other hand decided to rest its best batsman of the format and has not picked it’s two best fast bowlers at all.

A lot of changes will be needed ahead of the second match although the primary thing is going to be getting clarity in plans for India. England, on the other hand, will not want to change anything much and stick to the same plans.

Venue – Sir Vivian Richards Stadium – Antigua, Antigua And Barbuda 

Winner- West Indies

Toss Prediction

It’s a brilliant wicket to bat and the skipper that wins the toss might opt to bat

Pitch Report

The surface will be pretty flat and should stay same throughout the game. 

Weather Report

There is some rain predicted on the match day which might cause several interruption. This might favour the teams batting second

West Indies Predicted Playing 11

Shai Hope (wk), Evin Lewis, Jason Mohammed, Darren Bravo, Nicholas Pooran, Kieron Pollard (c), Jason Holder, Fabian Allen, Romario Shepherd, Alzarri Joseph, Akeal Hosein

• All Rounder:Wanindu Hasaranga, Holder,Fabien Allen
• Wicket Keeper:Shai Hope
• Bowler:Dushmantha Chameera, Lakshan Sandakan, Alzarri Joseph

• West Indies has a strong batting lineup but playing the long game is not its strength
• Sri Lanka’s spinners were very effective in the T20 series and that is only likely to continue in this match

The T20 series between West Indies and Sri Lanka was very exciting! We don’t think many people expected Sri Lanka to come as close as it did to beat the West Indies. Now, it is time for the ODI series between West Indies and Sri Lanka, also in Antigua, but in a different stadium.

We think it is fair to say that West Indies tends to struggle as the format becomes a bit longer and so the 50 over format is going to be more challenging. It still has a full-strength to pick from, though, and that was not always the case in recent times.

Sri Lanka will add a few key players to the side and hope that it is able to use its strengths better in the longer format of the game. One thing is for sure, there is going to be no shortage of excitement!

West Indies vs Sri Lanka 1st ODI 2021 is going to be played at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua on the 10th of March 2021.

Date – Mar 10, 2021

Time – 19:00:00, GMT +5:30

Venue – Sir Vivian Richards Stadium – Antigua, Antigua And Barbuda

Winner – West Indies

Toss Prediction

West Indies lost the last two tosses in the T20i series so they are due this one, though they appear to be happy to field first

PITCH AND CONDITIONS

The weather conditions in Antigua are very good for cricket. There is very little chance of rain forecast and so we should be able to enjoy a complete uninterrupted encounter. The pitch at the Sir Vivan Richards Stadium is known to be pretty quick in comparison to some of the others in the region.

This usually translates to plenty of runs bring hit and a fast pace of the game. The spinners will get some help but may have to rely on the bounce more than turn to get their wickets.

A score of around 250 seems to be par batting first.

Weather Report

Antigua is set to be partly cloudy, but the chance of rain is very low.

West Indies Predicted Playing 11

Shai Hope (wk), Evin Lewis, Darren Bravo, Kyle Mayers, Nicholas Pooran, Kieron Pollard, Jason Holder, Fabian Allen, Romario Shepherd, Alzarri Joseph, Kevin Sinclair

Time – 04:30:00, GMT +5:30

Venue- Westpac Stadium – Wellington, New Zealand 

Winner – Australia

NZ vs AUS Toss Prediction

Australia have won the toss three times out of four so far, so New Zealand should win this one and elected to field first in the only game they have had the option so far.

Weather Report

There is rain in the air in Wellington but the earlier showers should make way for a changeable afternoon.

Pitch Condition

The number of wickets to fall to spin in Wellington in this series tells a story, but generally it is just a very changeable track.

New Zealand Predicted Playing 11

Martin Guptill, Tim Seifert (wk), Kane Williamson (c), Devon Conway, Glenn Phillips, James Neesham, Mitchell Santner, Kyle Jamieson, Tim Southee, Ish Sodhi, Trent Boult

Australia Predicted Playing 11

Matthew Wade (wk), Aaron Finch (c), Josh Philippe, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Ashton Agar, Jhye Richardson, Kane Richardson, Adam Zampa, Riley Meredith

• Batsmen:Aaron Finch, Marcus Stoinis, Devon Conway, Martin Guptill
• All Rounder:Glenn Maxwell (vc), Ashton Agar (c), Mitchell Santner
• Wicket Keeper:Matthew Wade
• Bowler:Adam Zampa, Kane Richardson, Ish Sodhi

• West Indies have a better batting line up. However, they can be a little inconsistent at times.
• Sri Lankan bowling relies on their spinners. They lack a genuine wicket taker that can get them initial breakthroughs
• West Indies have more depth in their team. They have proper batsmen till no 8 so they are never out of the contest.

Date -06 March 2021

Time –  03:30:00, GMT +5:30

Venue- Coolidge Cricket Ground – Antigua, Antigua And Barbuda

Winner – West indies

Toss Prediction

The kind of firepower West Indies have in their batting, they’d like to chase. Same can be said about Sri Lanka

Pitch Report

We thought that the pitch in the previous game was little on the slower side. Spinners will get much more out of the wicket than the pacers.

Weather Report

The weather looked on the match day. There will be few clouds around but rain should stay away from the game

West Indies Predicted Playing 11

Lendl Simmons, Evin Lewis, Chris Gayle, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Kieron Pollard (c), Jason Holder, Fabian Allen, Dwayne Bravo, Kevin Sinclair, Obed McCoy, Fidel Edwards

• Australia finally turned up to the party and won its first game of this T20 series against New Zealand. It was a performance that we had been expecting for quite some time now but the inexperience seemed to count against Australia in previous matches.

  All of their experienced players got back in form and the series could be a lot more closely contested from here on in. New Zealand will want to chalk its loss as a one-off but will know it has some areas to improve in as well.

  Can Australia continue its momentum and win this next match to set up a decider? Will New Zealand strike back harder than ever before? Let’s see what is likely to happen.

  New Zealand vs Australia 4th T20 2021 is going to be played at the Westpac Stadium, Wellington on the 5th of March 2021.

Date – Mar 05, 2021

Time – 11:30:00, GMT +5:30

Venue- Westpac Stadium – Wellington, New Zealand 

Winner – New Zealand

Toss Prediction

Its a brilliant wicket to bat and the skipper that wins the toss might opt to bat

Pitch Report

The conditions in Wellington are expected to be good for cricket. There is some rain around but nothing that should seriously interrupt the match. The pitch at Westpac was very flat and good for batting. The unique nature of the ground where one side was much shorter than the other allowed the players to target it for their big-hits.

Nothing much is going to change for the next match and we expect the pitch to play very well once more. A score of around 180-190 must be the minimum that teams batting first are going to aim for.

Weather Report

The weather looks good with bright sunshine and temperatures around 20 degrees

New Zealand Predicted Playing 11

• Despite openers Sharjeel Khan and Babar Azam being in fine batting form, the Kings have won two and lost two so far.
