Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka are all poised to take on each in the 24th fixture of the 2023 ICC World Cup Qualifier in Bulawayo. The game will take place on July 2 and kick off at 12:30 PM IST. This will be a high-octane battle as both unbeaten sides will square off for the first time in the tournament.

Sri Lanka are well and truly in the driver's seat and are virtually one win away from booking their place for the 50-over World Cup in India. They have fared well in all departments, especially their spin bowling attack which has caused a few problems for the opposition batters.

Zimbabwe, on the other hand, have become a battle-hardened side and have played some competitive cricket throughout the tournament. Their batting has been a big plus point for them which has soared them to new heights in this competition.

With so much to play for, here are the top three players you can choose as a captain or vice-captain in your ZIM vs SL Dream11 prediction match.


#3 Wanindu Hasaranga (SL) - 9 credits
