What is the pitch report for SL vs SCO, ICC CWC Qualifier 2023, Group B, Match 19?
There is not much to offer for the bowlers at the start of the innings and as the game progresses the wicket will start assisting the spinners. Runs on the board will always matter here hence batting first is a good option.

Pre-Match Analysis:
Sri Lanka as expected entirely dominated the tournament so far, bagging 6 points without getting into the trouble. All their 3 wins have been massive which shows how dangerous they are. Wanindu Hasaranga played an integral role in those wins, claiming three 5 wicket hauls in a row. They thrashed Ireland by 133 runs on Saturday to register their 3rd win. Comeback star Dimuth Karunaratne is showing his pure class, hitting 2 half-centuries and a century in the last 3 matches. They shouldn’t get satisfied with their performances as still plenty of hard work needs to be done to earn a World Cup Ticket for India.
Scotland are proving why they are the 2nd best side in Europe after England. They played exceptional cricket in this Qualifier and didn’t take much time to seal their spot in the Super 6s. They started their campaign with a mere one wicket over Ireland, and later humbled UAE and Oman by 111 runs and 76 runs respectively. Michael Leask, Richie Berrington, and Brandon McMullen emerged as matchwinners on 3 different occasions that shows they aren’t dependent on a single individual.
