AUS vs SL Today Match Prediction: Welcome to the third T20I between Australia and Sri Lanka. Australia are 2-0 up in the series but only by the skin of their teeth. Sri Lanka nearly pulled off the impossible in the previous match and exposed some of Australia’s weaknesses as they took it to the super over. If the visitors had more top-order support for Pathum Nissanka, the series would easily have been levelled. The Australian middle order has also been shaky with two collapses after strong starts in both matches. And with Steven Smith out of the series it will give chance to Henriques. Sri Lanka have been grappling with illness as Kusal Mendis tested positive for Covid-19 before the series. The impressive tall left-arm pace bowler Binura Fernando is also reportedly down with an illness. In such circumstances, the visitors could repeat the XI that took the field in the second game. This promises to be an exciting match.
