SL vs ENG Dream11 team prediction

Sri Lanka and England are all set to face each other in the final T20I of the series. The series is currently in favor of the visitors, who have been dominant in the T20Is. This victory demonstrates how well-prepared England are for the upcoming T20 World Cup. On the other hand, this kind of performance under home conditions is a huge matter of concern for Sri Lanka.

Sri Lankan opening batsman Pathum Nissanka and England's wicketkeeper-batsman Jos Buttler were the top performers in the previous match and both are the standout choices for this SL vs ENG Dream11 team prediction. Both are among the best T20 batsmen in the world. Nissanka smashed 34 runs off just 22 balls, while Buttler scored 39 runs at a strike rate of 134.

The Pallekele has one of the most beautiful cricket stadiums in the world. The pitch was a batting paradise in the last game and is expected to be the same for this match. Usually, the pitch offers some assistance to spinners as the match progresses. Overall, expect a high-scoring match with both teams having one of the most dangerous batsmen in the world.
