On Thursday, November 2, India and Sri Lanka are set to face off in an ODI World Cup 2023 encounter at 2:00 pm IST.  The game will take place in Mumbai, Maharashtra’s Wankhede Stadium.

India has triumphed in all six of its matches in the current competition and is in excellent condition. Indian pacers displayed their elite abilities as India defeated England by 100 runs in their most recent encounter.  Meanwhile, Sri Lanka lost their most recent game against Afghanistan by a total of seven wickets. The Lankans are seventh in the points standings having only won two of their six games. 

Shubman Gill has scored 104 runs in four innings at the World Cup, not exactly his finest run total. He mentioned his half-century against Bangladesh, but his performance in the earlier game speaks for itself. 

But in the event that Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have a rough day at work, India needs other batsmen to step up. Gill has to focus on putting on an excellent showing in this match to get himself back in the flow, as the track at Wankhede is going to play to his skills.

The Wankhede Stadium’s surface can be a batter’s heaven on most days. Although, it also tends to provide some assistance to the bowlers on some occassions. In the previous 20 games played here, the first innings scoring has averaged 258 runs. Depending on the various conditions of the day, the winning side may choose to bowl or bat.

According to the weather prediction for November 2, there is no risk that rain. Therefore, we can expect a full game ahead of the India vs. Sri Lanka game. The temperature may be approximately 29.3 degrees Celsius with a humidity of roughly 53%. 

The unbearable heat of Mumbai might be one of the crucial factors for the skippers’ at the toss. Teams might favour to chase due to the dew factor as well as the fact that they can post a high score on a batting paradise surface.
