Sri Lanka begin the opening T20I determined to move past the disappointment of the ODI series and make a strong start on home soil. Familiar conditions at Pallekele are expected to suit them, particularly with a bowling attack that relies on spin and variation. The spotlight will be on Sri Lanka’s batting, especially the middle order, which has lacked consistency in recent matches. Charith Asalanka and Dhananjaya de Silva will be key in stabilising the innings, while Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis are expected to set a solid platform at the top. With the likes of Wanindu Hasaranga, Maheesh Theekshana and Matheesha Pathirana, Sri Lanka have the bowling strength to trouble England. England arrive in Sri Lanka full of confidence after a commanding T20I series victory over New Zealand and will aim to continue that momentum. Their powerful batting lineup remains their biggest asset, featuring aggressive players who can change the course of a match quickly. However, adjusting to the spin-friendly conditions in Pallekele will be crucial for their success.
