The Chamari Athapaththu-led Sri Lankan side is a strong contender for this year's title to end their 15-year drought of a T20 World Cup trophy. The Islanders have not gone past the first round in any of the previous tournaments.

Sri Lanka will clash with some big teams in Group A like, Australia, New Zealand, Pakistan and India. They have a strong batting lineup with the skipper leading from the front. Athapaththu's recent form will help the Lankans in the upcoming tournament.

Vishmi Gunaratne, Harshitha Samarawickrama, and Kavisha Dilhari are some top-order batters and Inoshi Priyadharshani, Udeshika Prabodhani and Hasini Perera will lead the bowling department.
