India will be up against Sri Lanka at Wankhede Stadium in a World Cup match... seems familiar? 12 and a half years later, the two Asian giants will be at loggerheads once again but this time, it's a group-stage match and the gulf between the two teams has only widened. India are bossing the tournament so far with a spotless record in six matches while Sri Lanka are gasping for breath to stay alive in the tournament.
India will be aiming to seal the semifinals spot while Sri Lanka will be collecting pieces after being shredded by Afghanistan in the last game to come back and aim to compete and maybe shock the title favourites. Sri Lanka seemed to have finally started to come together as a unit with the inclusion of the likes of Angelo Mathews and Dushmantha Chameera but a batting collapse against Afghanistan didn't help their cause and now will need a better outing in all three departments.
