Preview:

Sri Lanka Legends will take on West Indies Legends in the 6th match of the Road Safety World Series 2020-21 on Saturday. Both the teams have already played a couple of matches in this tournament prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, but the squad has changed a great deal. Sri Lanka Legends kick-started their campaign with a win over the Australian Legends by 7 runs, but in their second match, they were outplayed by the Indian Legends by 5 wickets. At present, they are at the third spot in the standings with 4 points. It will be a fresh start for them since they are back in action after a long gap of one year.

On the other hand, West Indies Legends have lost 2 of their matches against India Legends and South Africa Legends. Dwayne Smith’s addition will help them a great deal, since he is a good striker and can role his arms when needed. Comparing both sides, Sri Lanka Legends have younger players in their squad and will start as favorites for this match.
