Full Details of Today Match Prediction
Cricket fans are ready to witness yet another big battle of the World Cup T20. The 1st match of World Cup T20 2022 is scheduled to play between Sri Lanka and Namibia on Sunday, 16th October 2022 at Simonds Stadium, Geelong. We are posting a safe, accurate, and secure today match prediction of the ICC T20 World Cup.
The defending champions, Australia is hosting ICC T20 World Cup 2022. The schedule of this World Cup is a little bit different and some new rules of cricket will be also applied in this tournament. A total of two matches are scheduled to be held daily. One game will be played in the afternoon and another game will be held in the evening. The first 12 matches will be played group-wise between 16 teams while the remaining matches will be held between Super 12 teams.
Sri Lanka is an improved T20 team and they are now the best team in Asia after winning Asia Cup 2022. Sri Lanka beat strong teams of T20 cricket like India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan in Asia Cup and they will be confident for this big event of cricket. The good news for Australia is that they had got their main players back to good form. Sri Lanka is facing a weak team and has a golden chance to get a winning start. Namibia is the other improved team of T20 cricket and they had recently beaten Zimbabwe in a T20 series of five matches.
Sri Lanka Reviews
Sri Lanka is playing this World Cup with the same team that was in Asia Cup 2022. They had made a couple of changes but the other players are almost the same. Dasun Shanaka is leading Sri Lanka. He is an experienced player and had played 74T20 matches for Sri Lanka where he scored 1126 runs with four fifties. The batting order of Sri Lanka is good but not strong as other teams in this tournament. Pathum Nissanka is the leading batter of Sri Lanka with Danushka Gunathilaka, Dhananjaya de Silva, Kusal Mendis, and Bhanuka Rajapaksa.
Sri Lanka also had improved its bowling skills and the bowlers of this team were just outstanding in Asia Cup. The main reason why Sri Lanka won the title of Asia Cup 2022 was the best performance by their bowlers. Wanindu Hasaranga had a lot of experience playing in the conditions of Australia and we think that he will prove a game-changer in this tournament. He had played 44 matches with 71 wickets to his name. Charith Asalanka, Maheesh Theekshana, Jeffrey Vandersay, Chamika Karunaratne, Dushmantha Chameera, Lahiru Kumara, Dilshan Madushanka, and Pramod Madushan are the leading bowlers of Sri Lanka in this World Cup.
Namibia Reviews
Namibia had played good cricket in recent times and this is the reason why they are in the top 16 teams who are playing this World Cup. The T20 history of Namibia is good as they had played a total of 38 T20 matches where they won 26 and lost just 12 matches. They had faced strong teams in T20 cricket like Pakistan, New Zealand, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, and Scotland. Namibia is still a new and unexperienced team and they will get a lot of experience by facing some other best T20 teams in this World Cup. Gerhard Erasmus is leading Namibia in this big event of T20 cricket. The batting order of Namibia is good and it is filled with young players.
David Wiese and JJ Smit are two very experienced players in the squad of Namibia. David Wiese had played in different cricket leagues like PSL, Indian Premier League, BBL, and CPL. He can play a major role in his national team. JJ Smit is another experienced player who also represented different T20 leagues in the world. Divan la Cock, Stephan Baard, and Lohandre Louwrens are leading bowlers of Namibia while Ruben Trumpelmann, Bernard Scholtz, Tangeni Lungameni, Michael van Lingen, and Ben Shikongo will be handling the bowling unit. Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton and Zane Green are wicket-keeper batters in the squad of this team.

Pitch Report and Conditions
The 1st Match of World Cup T20 2022 is going to be held at Simonds Stadium, Geelong. We had observed in the previous matches played here that the pitch here at this venue is good for batting. The track is slower than the others we have seen and helps the spinners quite a bit. We are hoping that the surface is bound to get slower and be a bit more difficult for batting in this match. A score of 170 is going to be tough to chase.
Weather Report for Today Match
The weather forecast in Geelong is predicting some clouds around on match day but the weather forecast does not predict rain. We should be able to have a full uninterrupted match.
