SL vs OMN Dream11 Prediction, Dream11 Playing XI, Today Match 16, ICC T20 World Cup 2026

Dream11 fantasy XI tips and guide for Match 16 of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 between SL vs OMN to be played in Pallekele.

The last few months have not been great for Sri Lanka, both on and off the field. They entered the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 under pressure. But they had a great start to their campaign with a win over Ireland in Group B.

Sri Lanka earned their first points on the board, and they will look to carry on the momentum into their second game. They will face Oman on Thursday at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium at 11 AM IST.

Sri Lanka suffered a blow when Wanindu Hasaranga was ruled out after the first win. He has been a key player in this format, and Sri Lanka have been left with a big gap to fill. Oman, on the other hand, were swept away by Zimbabwe in their first game and will be looking to put up an improved performance in this game.

SL vs OMN: Pitch Report

The wicket in Pallekele is considered pretty good for the bowlers. There is enough help for the seamers early on, when the ball will be new. Spinners will have the major role here, as the wicket will start gripping after the first few overs.

With overcast conditions predicted for this game, it will be wise to bowl first here. It is because the wicket gets slightly improved for batting with time.
