India vs Sri Lanka: Prediction for CWC 2023 match
If India play to their potential just like how they have done in the competition so far, it should be a cakewalk for them to achieve win over Sri Lanka. However, this Sri Lankan side is as mercurial as it gets. They have everything to play for and would want to give it their all as they are only a step away from getting knocked out.
Still, Rohit Sharma and Co. are better placed and should have no trouble in maintaining their undefeated run.
