The second ODI match between the two Asian rivals will commence at 02:30 PM IST (Indian Standard Time). The ongoing series is Afghanistan's maiden visit to Sri Lanka for a bilateral series. The ODI series is part of the world super league 2023.

Afghanistan took a lead of 1-0 in the series by winning the first ODI by a big margin of 60 runs. The top 4 of the Afghanistan batting lineup scored runs on their way to put up a decent total of 294 on the board. Ibrahim Zadran was the pick of the lot as he scored a brilliant century which set the foundation for the Afghan win. Surprisingly, while defending the score, the Afghan seamers were far more successful than their well reputed spinners. Although, Afghanistan won the first game, they have to work on their lower middle order batting as it couldn't fire at all and not having a strong finish can cost them later in the series.

For Sri Lanka, a comeback in this game is very necessary as the three-match ODI series will be seemingly a stepping-stone for both the teams in preparing and making their way for earning a direct qualification in the upcoming Men's ODI World Cup which is scheduled to take place in India later next year. Except Pathum Nissanka with the bat and Wanindu Hasaranga with his all-round performance, nobody could make an impact in the first game. Sri Lanka will want their key players to deliver in this game as it is very crucial for them to survive in the series.
