 Sri Lanka vs West Indies Today Match Prediction 

 Match:  Sri Lanka vs West Indies 
 Time:   26 October, 02:30 PM (IST) 

 Series:: West Indies tour of Sri Lanka, 2024 
 Venue:   Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele  

 Info: 

• The Sri Lankan (SL) cricket team, having pulled off the ODI series 2-0 against the West Indies (WI), will hope for a whitewash in the third and final game, set to take place on October 26 at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Kandy.
• In the series opening thriller, Charith Asalanka and his men emerged victorious by five wickets via the DLS-inflicted method. The visitors set a target of 232 runs after posting 185/4 in the 38.3 overs. However, during the chase, the hosts successfully reached the target in just 31.2 overs to take a 1-0 lead.
• Following the thrilling win in the first ODI, the home team won the second ODI game by five wickets again. Fielding first in the 44-over game, Charith Asalanka and Co. bundled out West Indies for just 189 runs. The Sri Lankan team then chased down the target in 38.2 overs to win the series.
• Notably, Shai Hope-led West Indies will be aiming to avoid a complete rout in the three matches of the ODI series, promising an exhilarating contest in the final game of the series. On the flip side, Charith Asalanka-led Sri Lanka can now look to register another series whitewash at home after marking a clean sweep win over Team India earlier this year.

 Weather & Pitch Report: 

 Weather: ⛅

Weather during the match time in Pallekele, LK will be cloudy. The temperature is expected to around 23°C on the match day with 86% humidity and 12.0 km/h wind speed. And the visibility is 10 KM. There are 100% chances of precipitation during the game. 

 Pitch: 🏟️

The Pallekele Stadium pitch is known for its batting-friendly nature, favouring the batters who often dominate the game. The surface doesn’t offer much assistance to pacers, making it easier for batsmen to find their rhythm and score big runs once they settle in. As the matches move forward, the pitch at Pallekele International Stadium gradually dries up and becomes more favourable for spinners. Considering the impressive spin options available to both teams, it wouldn’t be surprising to witness game-changing performances from the talented spin department.
