The 1996 ODI World Cup champions Sri Lanka will need to qualify for the ICC men's ODI World Cup 2023 through the Cricket World Cup Qualifiers tournament currently taking place in Zimbabwe. The Lankans have been placed in Group B and will take on fellow Asian side United Arab Emirates in their first match of the ICC men's Cricket World Cup 2023 Qualifier at the Queens Sport Club in Bulawayo on Monday.

All-rounder Dasun Shanaka is the captain this time around after replacing previous 2019 World Cup captain Dimuth Karunaratne. Sri Lanka will be banking their hopes on the form of former captain Karunaratne and batter Kusal Mendis - both of whom scored impressived hundreds in the warm-up games before the Qualifiers tournament.

The Lankans will be boosted by the addition of 'Baby Malinga' Matheesha Pathirana, who is coming into this tournament of the back of IPL 2023 win with MS Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings.

LIVE SL vs UAE World Cup Qualifier: UAE captain after loss

"We started well but didn't get the early wickets. Also, didn't bowl well in the middle overs. There was moisture early on but they played well, some balls swung but their openers handled it well. I thought we could restrict them to 260-270 but gave away too many towards the end. We got a good start when myself and Aravind were batting, but we lost one wicket and collapsed soon after. Naseer is a great talent and the future for UAE. He has to learn to bat 50 overs and had he done that then he would have scored more," said Muhammad Waseem after the loss against Sri Lanka.
