In the ICC World Cup 2023, Sri Lanka has won the toss and chosen to field first in their crucial Match 33 against India, which is a must-win game for Sri Lanka to keep their hopes of reaching the semi-finals alive.
India, the only undefeated team in the tournament with six convincing victories, currently leads the standings and is on the verge of securing a spot in the knockout stage.
A seventh consecutive win would not only guarantee India a place in the later stages of the competition but also give them an opportunity to fine-tune their line-up and possibly finish in first place.
Sri Lanka were expected to be a surprise contender in the tournament, especially after reaching the final of the recent Asia Cup on their home turf.
