Australia vs Sri Lanka Live Cricket Rating, T20 World Cup 2026 Match Today (Australia National Cricket Team vs Sri Lanka National Cricket Team Scorecard): Australia faces the specter of an early elimination after a surprising 23-run defeat to Zimbabwe of their previous match. To advance to the Super Eights without depending on other results, they have to secure victories of their remaining group matches against Sri Lanka and Oman. Australia currently sits third within the group table with two points from two games. The 2021 champions, suffering from injuries, experienced a dramatic top-order collapse and were bowled out for 146 against Zimbabwe.
Captain Mitchell Marsh, who also opens the innings, missed Australia’s second consecutive game and stays uncertain as a result of internal testicular bleeding. Steven Smith has officially joined the squad as a alternative for Josh Hazlewood. His inclusion is anticipated to bolster Australia’s batting lineup, given his strong record against spin and up to date impressive T20 form.
