It was anticipated that six-time champion Sri Lanka would advance from their group, and they did so spectacularly. With three straight victories, Charith Asalanka and his team have qualified and will be hoping to continue their winning streak into the Super Four. The first Super Four matchup is between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. The game is scheduled for September 20 (Saturday) at 8 PM IST at Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
The Lankans will want to continue their winning run. Their greatest victory in the group stage came against Bangladesh. The other games versus Afghanistan and Hong Kong were chasing as well, but with a lot fewer balls remaining. The Tigers, meanwhile, won two of their three league phase games to finish second in Group B. They defeated Afghanistan and Hong Kong, respectively, after losing to Sri Lanka. The team led by Litton Das will want to start their Super Four stage well.

Dubai International Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:
As the match progresses, the surface in Dubai will be destroyed, making it a haven for spinners. The fissures will occasionally bounce unevenly and turn quickly as a result of opening. Batters will have to invest money and time in the lost balls, though. In twilight matches, batting second has been the preferred strategy.
Weather Forecast:
The temperature is predicted to be between 33 and 35°C on Saturday, making it another hot evening in Dubai. With 62 per cent humidity, the wind speed is expected to be between 12 and 14 km/h.
