Then again, in the World Cup 2011, Sri Lanka lost the final match against the two-time champions Indian National Cricket Team in Mumbai. Now, the upcoming ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 will be held from 30 May to 14 July 2019 and will be hosted by England and Wales.

The schedule for the 2019 Cricket World Cup is already out. It will be interesting to see if two-time runner-ups Sri Lanka able to win the World Cup trophy for the first time ever or not. Sri Lanka will play its first World Cup match against New Zealand on June 1 in Cardiff.

At the same venue on June 4, Sri Lanka will play against Afghanistan. Similarly, before the 2019 World Cup finals, Sri Lanka has to face all the other teams. The final match will be at the Lord’s in London on 14 July 2019.
