The track in Bengaluru has always been flat, and the previous game showed the same. Another high-scoring game might well be on the cards, with the pacers having slight help due to the weather around. A total of around 320 should be a fighting one.
The temperature is expected to hover around 26°C, and there is a high probability of rain throughout the match hours. We might have a short game, or even a washout can not be ruled out.
New Zealand: Devon Conway, Rachin Ravindra, Kane Williamson (c), Daryl Mitchell, Tom Latham (wk), Glenn Phillips, Mark Chapman, Mitchell Santner, Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee, Trent Boult.
Sri Lanka: Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Perera, Kusal Mendis (c & wk), Sadeera Samarawickrama, Charith Asalanka, Angelo Mathews, Dhananjaya de Silva, Maheesh Theekshana, Dushmantha Chameera, Kasun Rajitha, Dilshan Madushanka.

Devon Conway: Devon Conway is a good captaincy option for this game. He will enjoy batting in Bengaluru, and the bowling attack of Sri Lanka is less formidable, too. Expect him to score big.
Rachin Ravindra: Rachin Ravindra has been among the most consistent batters of the tournament. He will look to continue his good run. His bowling will also fetch some points.
Kusal Mendis: Kusal Mendis hasn’t performed as well in the second half of the tournament. However, he will enjoy batting in Bengaluru and can score big. Mendis will also fetch some points with his wicketkeeping.
Tim Southee: Tim Southee has surprisingly been picked up by less than 39% of users as of now, making him a good differential pick. Southee has a decent record against Sri Lanka and can snare a few wickets early on. Bowling in the death overs will also increase his probability of taking wickets.
Kusal Perera: Kusal Perera has been selected by less than 5% of people as of now. The pitch will assist shot-makers, and Perera likes playing his shots. It might backfire significantly, but Perera can be tried in a few teams.
Mark Chapman: Mark Chapman will bat in the lower order and won’t bowl much, either. He can be avoided for this game.
If NZ bat first:
Complete the team with Sadeera Samarawickrama, Angelo Mathews and Tim Southee.
If SL bat first:
Complete the team with Kusal Perera, Mitchell Santner and Dushmantha Chameera.
