Bangladesh will take on 1996 World Cup champions Sri Lanka in match no. 38 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Monday. Both teams are out of race for a berth in the semifinals but need a top 7 finish to assure themselves of a berth in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
The match is being played in the National Capital amid concerns over severe air pollution and AQI index in the NCR area over the last week. The Lankan team management raised these concerns with the ICC and were informed that the match will go ahead.
“Let me answer that question. I don’t think we made a request like that. We didn’t make a request to change, but we were just asking ICC what happens because when we came here, we saw that the Bangladesh team has cancelled and we saw actually the outside environment. So, we just asked them what’s the plan. So, they said they will actually have a discussion, and then they’ll come back. And I think they have installed some equipment here, and they’ve got specialists to check, and they are helping him out. So, they have already informed us that they are planning to go ahead. So, we will do exactly what the ICC actually tells us to do,” SL Team Manager Mahinda Halangoda informed the media on the eve of the match.
Bangladesh are coming into this match on the back of five successive losses and their only win in the tournament so far came over Afghanistan in Dharamsala last month. Shakib al Hasan’s side will be keen on ending this losing run.
