Aside from their impressive win against England, Sri Lanka will head home after today’s game feeling somewhat disappointed with their performance at the 2019 Cricket World Cup. This final group match against does at least give them an opportunity to go out on a high and prove their worth against India, the tournament’s best performing team thus far. And you’ll be able to watch all the action live no matter where you are in the world by using our India vs Sri Lanka live stream guide below
Live stream India vs Sri Lanka – where and when
This Cricket World Cup match takes place at Headingley in Leeds, the regular home venue of Yorkshire County Cricket Club.
Play begins at 10.30am BST on Saturday, July 6. For those tuning in from India that’s a 3pm New Delhi Time start.
Despite being comfortably already in the last four, India won’t be taking their foot off the pedal with today’s match providing the opportunity to seal their place at top of the round robin table and book in a semi-final slot against New Zealand rather than hosts England.
Sri Lanka will be hoping to replicate their heroics of when the two teams last played each other on English soil during the ICC Champions Trophy in 2017, when the Tigers somehow managed to chase down India’s 321/6 with seven wickets to spare.
Expect a high scoring game – the weather forecast is warm and sunny for majority of the day in Leeds, meaning the pitch should favour those batting.
