ZIM vs SL Match Preview
Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe will play their third and final ODI of the series on Thursday at the R Premadasa Stadium. After the series’ first match ended in a draw, Sri Lanka won a closely contested second match by two wickets with six balls remaining. Sri Lanka were delighted to win on Monday, but they were overly reliant on lower-order runs, and they will be looking for more from the top half in this ODI. There is still plenty of room for improvement throughout the team as we approach the series’ final match. Zimbabwe improved significantly in the second ODI, and if they can take another step forward in this game, they could win and tie the series at 1-1. They must bat out their entire overs after being bowled out after 44.4 overs on Monday.

Top Picks – Zimbabwe
- Craig Ervine – The captain was the standout performer with the bat for his side on Monday with an innings which included nine fours and one six.

ZIM vs SL Probable Winners:
Due to the weather in the first ODI on Saturday, this series still has something to play for heading into the final game. Zimbabwe had some really strong moments in the second match and looked like they were going to win it and go ahead 1-0 in the series. However, Sri Lanka has a wealth of experience on their side, and we believe they have enough talent to cross the finish line and win the series 2-0. Considering the team combination, Sri Lanka is expected to win this match.
