T20 World Cup 2026: SWOT analysis of Sri Lanka - Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats
Spin depth and home conditions shape Sri Lanka’s strengths, while batting firepower and execution remain key variables ahead of T20 World Cup 2026.
Opportunities
With depth and variety across the attack, Sri Lanka’s bowlers will be keen to make a strong statement on the global stage. For captain Dasun Shanaka, the tournament represents a chance to redefine his leadership record. A squad built around all-rounders and bowling depth suited to their home conditions can be complimentary to Shanaka's style of captaincy.
Sri Lanka will also see the tournament as an opportunity to re-establish themselves on the global stage. A strong showing on home soil could signal a shift from being occasional disruptors to consistent contenders in ICC events. Beyond immediate results, success would help restore confidence, rebuild belief within the group, and offer a reminder of the standards that once defined Sri Lankan cricket during its most successful era.
