Lankans in do-or-die situation against Zimbabwe

GUYANA, May 2: With their campaign derailed by a shock loss to New Zealand, Sri Lanka face a battle of survival against a confident Zimbabwe in their second Group B match of the Twenty20 World Cup on Monday. In their opening match, Sri Lanka had done most things right till the last over. The Islanders posted a good score on board and defended it well before Nathan McCullum stole the match with a six off Lasith Malinga in the final over. That six of the second last ball has placed the Lankans in a do-or-die battle against Zimbabwe, who are coming into Monday’s match after beating formidable Australia and defending champions Pakistan in their warm-up games.
