After a historic win over Ireland, Netherlands walk into this match high on confidence against an in-form Sri Lankan team in Match No 19 of the ICC World T20 2014 at Chittagong on Monday evening.
he main issue for Sri lanka is Tillakaratne Dilshan’s struggle for form; they would hope he gets his touch back. This game could be an ideal chance for him to get back some rhythm and spend a decent amount of time in the middle. Their middle-order looks strong in Mahela Jayawardene, Kumar Sangakkara and Angelo Mathews holding the innings. They also have the big-hitting ability of Thisara Perera to follow.
The Dutch have been buoyed by that remarkable victory over the Irish, but this is a very different kettle of wish. Their batsmen won’t be able to express themselves as freely as they did during the previous game. But, there is one man they will bank on and that is Tom Cooper. When compared to his other teammates, he gets more quality exposure as he plays in Australia. He has been their trump-card so far. But, there is also a lot expected from Stephan Myburgh, Wesley Barresi and Peter Borren.

Sri Lanka: Dinesh Chandimal (c), Tillakaratne Dilshan, Kusal Perera, Kumar Sangakkara (wk), Mahela Jayawardene, Angelo Mathews, Thisara Perera, Nuwan Kulasekara, Lasith Malinga, Ajantha Mendis, Sachitra Senanayake, Seekkuge Prasanna, Lahiru Thirimana, Rangana Herath, Suranga Lakmal.
