Teams & Format
The format of the series will see the pair partaking in the Twenty20 game. A T20 is the shortest of the three major formats and champions big run scoring at a very fast rate.
Batters are tasked with scoring as many runs as they can by hammering the ball over the boundary rope. Unlike the Test and One Day International format, caution is thrown to the wind fairly early on, making for exciting battles between bat and ball.
While the ball has been at a disadvantage for some time with smaller boundaries and players that can hit all over the park, when a bowler gets it right, expect to see the stumps sent flying in all direction.
The West Indies will arrive for the series knowing they have the tools to secure a triumph as they look to continue to edge back towards the summit of the game. However, they have a batting line-up that can hit huge shots but is just as easily skittled, with consistency key for the home side.
Like their hosts, Sri Lanka will know they have every chance of winning this series, especially if they can really get at the batters of the home team. Returning to the top of the game will be Sri Lanka's aim, and they can continue their rise by beating the Windies.
Key Players & Prospects
| Player (Team) | Prospects |
|---|---|
| Shimron Hetmyer (West Indies) | Able to smash the ball to all corners of the park, the West Indies batter will want to focus on being at the crease for an extended amount of time, with his ability to clear the boundary key. |
| Kusal Mendis (Sri Lanka) | Sri Lanka's captain will want to be the glue that holds the touring side together with the bat as he tries to ensure he also stars with his tactical moves. |
West Indies vs Sri Lanka T20 Series Popular Betting Markets
- Top Batter: The T20 game is usually all about the batters. This market will ask bettors to back the player they think will top score in the match. Be careful here though. A player may be in fine form heading into a game, but if they are poor on a specific surface or have a poor record against a certain bowler, then they could fall cheaply despite their form.
- Series Score: Nailing the score of a series is far easier said than done. While you may pick one nation to win, did you nail the side winning a three-match series 1-0, 2-0, 2-1 or 3-0? Throw in the weather potentially seeing a game abandoned and you are provided with a market that is tough to predict. This sees bettors given decent odds, but always keep an eye on the weather and form.
