Sri Lanka v Afghanistan Preview, Match 12 at Dunedin - ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 Live Streaming
Angelo Mathews guarantees to field full-quality XI, says his group would need to battle the distance to win
It's regularly overlooked that, around four decades back, Sri Lanka was precisely where Afghanistan is today.
Sri Lanka started its voyage as Associates and waded through harsh waters before winning the 1996 World Cup and creating itself as one of the head One-Day International sides. It's liable to be a while before Afghanistan accomplishes what Sri Lanka has, yet when the two sides meet in Dunedin on Sunday (February 22), Afghanistan will be enthusiastic to take a few notes and possibly throw in a right hook or two to highlight its aim and capacity.
The probability of Afghanistan pulling the mat from under Sri Lanka's feet is subject to which Sri Lankan side turns out at University Oval. Should Afghanistan face the side still sapped from the 98-run misfortune to New Zealand in the World Cup opener a week prior, it stands a decent risk. At the same time if Sri Lanka present to its An amusement to the table to compensate for the misfortune and set itself up for a spot in the knockouts from Pool An, Afghanistan is going to have an extreme errand staring it in the face.
It's reasonable that the greatest variable will be Lasith Malinga. The paceman, coming back from a six-month cutback because of damage, was a long ways from his destroying self against New Zealand, where he yielded 84 runs from ten overs with no wickets against his name.
Malinga must be longing to threaten batsmen by and by and a tie against the Afghans is maybe his most obvious opportunity to get back in his notch ought to the Sri Lankan captain Angelo Mathews keep him in the playing XI. "We accept he'll return emphatically in the following few matches," said Lahiru Thirimanne on Saturday.

While Malinga's structure is a worry, Sri Lanka has a considerable measure on its brain concerning its batting. Pursuing an overwhelming 331, Sri Lanka was in control with Thirimanne taking care of the wheel, however in losing nine wickets for a minor 109 more runs, it demonstrated that it can be powerless against restrained bowling.
As prove in its tie against Bangladesh – its introduction at the ICC Cricket World Cup – Afghanistan can be clinical with the ball. While its batting wavered in that 105-run misfortune, Afghanistan's bowling, driven by Shapoor Zadran, demonstrated a considerable measure of coarseness and control in spite of lacking debilitating pace.
