T20 World Cup 2026: Super Eights, Match 42, ENG vs SL – Top 3 player battles to watch out for
Sri Lanka will face England on February 22, at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele.
2. Kusal Mendis vs Adil Rashid
This battle in the middle-overs will be crucial in deciding where the match result will go. Mendis is having a brilliant tournament, having scored three half-centuries so far. The right-hander will look to carry that form ahead.
But, against him will be England’s leading spinner Adil Rashid. The English side will be relying on him to pick wickets in the middle-overs, especially Mendis, who has the ability to rotate the strike. Rashid has picked up six wickets so far and would want to increase the tally.
