Team News

Sri Lanka Legends will be led by Tillakaratne Dilshan in the tournament. In the two games they played last year, Sri Lanka Legends won one and lost one. While they defeated Australia by 7 wickets in a dominating show, Dilshan and his band were defeated by India Legends in the next game by 5 wickets. They would be looking to get back to winning ways in the series as they take on debutants Bangladesh Legends. The Sri Lankan team comprises some of the biggest match-winners of the limited-overs format.

Bangladesh Legends, on the other hand, would have got an assessment of the pitch after having played the opener against India on Friday. A match practice would help Mohammed Rafique and his team to put their best foot forward against the Sri Lankans.
