    Australia will fight for redemption as they take on Sri Lanka in their upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2022 match. The hosts lost to New Zealand by 89 runs in their opener. On the other hand, the Lankan Lions defeated Ireland by nine wickets in their first Super 12-round game. Here is the preview of the upcoming contest.

    Pitch report, timing, and streaming details

    The Perth Stadium will host this duel on October 25. Only three T20Is have been played at this venue so far with the average first-innings score being 142. Teams chasing have won twice here. The track is traditionally known to favor fast bowlers. The match will be telecast live on Star Sports Network and live-streamed (4:30 PM IST) on Hotstar (paid subscription).

    Here is the head-to-head record

    The two sides have met 25 times in T20Is so far with the head-to-head record being 15-10 in Australia's favor. Australia defeated the Lankan team 2-1 in their last bilateral T20I meeting, which took place in June this year. In T20 WC, the Aussies defeated Sri Lanka thrice and suffered a solitary loss. Meanwhile, SL have won nine of their 18 T20Is Down Under.

    Australia head into the game as favorites

    Australia put up a horrendous show against the Kiwis and one more loss in the group stage could deny them an entry in the knock-out stage. Sri Lanka, after getting humbled by Namibia in their opener, played some quality cricket and recorded three consecutive wins. Nevertheless, the Aussies will step into the game as favourites, having the services of several T20 stalwarts.
