SRI LANKA BETTING ANALYSIS

Charith Asalanka demonstrated his quality in the first ODI, playing a fantastic innings of 77 batting at number five. His knock included eight 4s and three 6s. With form no doubt in his favour and on the same ground, bettors should serious consider investing in Asalanka backing that up with another sizeable innings here of 30+ runs via the ‘Batter Milestones’ market.

WEST INDIES BETTING ANALYSIS

West Indies spin-bowler Gudakesh Motie starred in this year’s Caribbean Premier League and has clearly carried that form into the international arena. His left-arm tweakers saw him pick up three wickets in the first ODI including both of the Sri Lankan set batters on scores of 69 and 77 respectively. Back Motie to take advantage of potentially helpful conditions and gain over 1.5 match wickets here for the second game running.

SRI LANKA VS WEST INDIES EXPERT PREDICTION

In these conditions, Sri Lanka are the better team and that was demonstrated in their last win over West Indies. The visitors have struggled batting wise in Pallekelle and that could continue on this occasion. Home advantage really can prove decisive in a series such as this and Sri Lanka are well set to go on and double their series lead, icing it with a game to spare.
