Fresh from winning the Asia Cup in the T20 format, Sri Lanka will lock horns with Namibia in the first round Group A match of the T20 World Cup 2022 on Sunday. At the outset, the former world champions in this format look like the runaway favourites to register a win in this match as the current form also seems to suggest.
However, that is the beauty of T20 cricket as the margin for error remains minimal and a bad passage of play even by the mightiest of teams might quickly take the game away from them. Having said that, even the current betting odds on M88 Mansion seem to suggest that it is Sri Lanka who are favourites to win.
Betting odds-
While the Asian champions win is being offered a betting odd of 1.09, greater the risk and thus the reward for what could easily be termed an upset if Namibia wins this and thus is being offered a betting odd of 07.30.
Predictions and tips-
While predicting a Sri Lanka win seems to be the safer option as of now, other safe options include going for no hundred in this match as it is a rare occurrence in this format.
