Mumbai: In ICC Men's Cricket World Cup, India will take on Sri Lanka at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai this afternoon. The match will start at 2 PM. India are currently on the second position in the points table with 12 points, after winning all their six matches. On the other hand, Sri Lanka are at the seventh position with only 4 points from two matches that they won in the tournament.
In scintillating form, India look every bit a champion side, quite like Dhoni’s batch of 2011. Placed on top of the table with an all-win record, they will be look to seal the semifinal spot with another win before a tough game against the in-form
South Africa at Eden Gardens.
The buzz around Rohit Sharma’s squad is unmatched, and Wankhede will be packed to the rafters in the hope of watching the home team put on another dominating show.
The game is important for India as they will in all probability play their semifinal here with Pakistan’s chances of progressing having dimmed. (If they face Pakistan, it would be at Eden Gardens). It will be an opportunity to get used to the conditions and understand their best combination before the knockout clash.
