By IANS News November 01, 2023 • 18:24 PM View: 1247

ODI World Cup: When it comes to the Men's ODI World Cup, India has been a happy hunting ground for Sri Lanka as they won their only title so far in 1996 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata and reached the final in 2011 losing to India in the final at the Wankhede Stadium.

So, when they take on hosts India in a key match of ICC Men's ODI World Cup at the Wankhede Stadium here on Thursday, Sri Lanka will be hoping to summon the spirit of those performances and get the better of table-toppers India and maintain their chances of qualifying for the semifinals.
