Team Preview of Sri Lanka vs South Africa 4th T20 World Cup Match Prediction 2024
Sri Lanka will be looking forward to doing well after failing to even reach the knockout stage in the 2023 World Cup and the quarter-final in the last three T20 World Cups. Their first match against South Africa was going to be a tough start for them because the South African team is one of the favorites to win the title, but in recent times, they have struggled to win the match as they lost all three matches against the West Indies.
Sri Lanka recently played the T20 series against Bangladesh and Afghanistan in which they won both series but not too easily, which shows that they are not in great touch but still need to give their all, if they want to progress in their group as they are one of the strongest team and South Africa, are their strongest opponent.
The last time both teams played against each other in the T20 format was in the 2021 World Cup, and Sri Lanka did not win any of the last six matches, which is quite a bad record for them going against South Africa. However, it will be an interesting match as South Africa has not done well in recent matches, which gives them the best opportunity.

Nassau County International Cricket Stadium has recently been inaugurated, and Sri Lanka vs South Africa will be the first match to happen in this stadium, which is a drop-in pitch, but the reports say that the soil is from Adelaide, Australia, and the condition is somewhere same which might be good for the pace bowling and great for the batter.

2. Matheesha Pathirana took 11 wickets in six matches and in the 2024 IPL tournament he picked up 13 wickets in 6 matches making him one of the main bowlers for the Sri Lanka team.
