Australia vs Sri Lanka T20 WC Live Score, Teams at Trent Bridge - 20 20 Group C 8th Match

In a very crucial 8th match of 2009 20 20 World Cup, in Group C - Group of Death, Australia will take Sri Lanka in the 2nd game of Monday, 8th June, 2009 at Nottingham, Trent Bridge starting from 17:30 local, 16:30 GMT, 10.00 PM IST.

This match is a do or die for ODI world champions Australia and must win this game to stay alive in the ICC World T20, after their worst defeat against West Indies 2 days ago. Brett Lee will probably be out after giving up 56 runs from four overs and I think they are really missing Andrew Symonds in the middle who was sent home due to breaking team rule.

Sri Lanka will play begin their campaign under new captain Kumara Sangakkara in a very tough group with Australia and West Indies. Kumaar Sangakkara, Mahila Jayawardhane and Tilakratne Dilshan are all done well in recently held IPL2.
