Sri Lanka vs New Zealand 2024 – Reddy Anna Match Prediction

Sri Lanka is on a roll at home, with only one loss in their last 10 matches, and they will look to extend this streak in the first ODI against New Zealand. The Kiwis have struggled in Sri Lanka in the past, and their weakened lineup due to injuries may make it even tougher for them to overcome the hosts. According to our Reddy Anna Match Prediction, Sri Lanka is the favorite to win this match.

Team Previews: Sri Lanka vs New Zealand – Reddy Anna Match Prediction

Sri Lanka PreviewCharith Asalanka and his team are gearing up for a strong performance, having recently defeated the West Indies in an ODI series at home. With players like Pathum Nissanka and Avishka Fernando in form, Sri Lanka's top order looks solid. Kusal Mendis is expected to anchor the batting, while Kamindu Mendis, Wanindu Hasaranga, and Dunith Wellalage will add depth with both bat and ball.

Sri Lanka’s strength lies in their spin attack, with Maheesh Theekshana, Wanindu Hasaranga, and Dunith Wellalage likely to exploit the turning conditions. The team will aim to put pressure on the Kiwis from the start.

Sri Lanka Predicted XI:Charith Asalanka (c), Pathum Nissanka, Avishka Fernando, Kusal Mendis (wk), Sadeera Samarawickrama, Kamindu Mendis, Wanindu Hasaranga, Dunith Wellalage, Maheesh Theekshana, Asitha Fernando, Dilshan Madushanka

New Zealand PreviewMitchell Santner's New Zealand squad will look to build on their T20 series comeback, but they face a tough challenge in Sri Lanka's spin-friendly conditions. Key players like Glenn Phillips, Henry Nicholls, and Michael Bracewell will be vital in the middle order, while bowlers like Ish Sodhi and Mitchell Santner must capitalize on the slow pitch conditions.

New Zealand has a decent bowling attack but will need early breakthroughs to put Sri Lanka under pressure. Despite being a strong team, they have struggled in Sri Lanka in recent years.

New Zealand Predicted XI:Mitchell Santner (c), Will Young, Mitch Hay (wk), Henry Nicholls, Jacob Duffy, Glenn Phillips, Michael Bracewell, Lockie Ferguson, Mark Chapman, Josh Clarkson, Ish Sodhi

Weather Conditions & Pitch Report

With overcast skies expected and a moderate chance of rain, conditions will be tough for batting, especially against spinners. The Rangiri Dambulla pitch is known to be slow, favoring spin bowlers. The average first-innings score is just 212 runs, with teams needing around 300 to defend effectively.

Toss Prediction: The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl, as defending under lights can be challenging in these conditions.

Reddy Anna Match Prediction

Sri Lanka has been dominant at home, and with their strong spin attack, they are poised to make a winning start. The absence of key players in the New Zealand squad could give Sri Lanka the upper hand. We predict Sri Lanka to win this encounter.

Our Prediction: Sri Lanka to win.
