SL vs WI Dream11 Match Prediction

SL vs WI Dream11: After the ODI series it is time for T20 action in the on-going battle between Sri Lanka and West Indies. The side from the Caribbean would feel comfortable going in the series as T20 is their preferred format. However, It would be a mistake taking Sri Lanka lightly at home especially after the consistent performances in the ODI series. The hosts defeated shown no mercy upon the visitors and defeated them 3-0 in the ODI series. West Indies would be wary of the threat this Sri Lankan side will pose to their ambitions and they would like to leave the horror of the ODI series behind them. Sri Lanka, on the other hand, would try to keep their form going to make the winning start in the T20Is as well. West Indies team would go out and try to play the fire-brand cricket they are known for in the T20I arena only to get the results in their favour in T20Is.
