After losing the first two matches, it will be important for both of these teams to grind out a victory. A defeat will mean three defeats in a row after three matches, which will be a body blow for the semifinal hopes.
It is to be seen how the teams will shape up for the crucial clash. Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka was injured and is ruled out from the tournament. Australia have never looked convincing so far, but it is the biggest chance for them to get their campaign back on track.
And considering all, we reckon the Aussies will get their first points on Monday.
