Underprepared Sri Lanka Faces Unpredictable Ireland in T20 World Cup Opener

• Sri Lanka, co-hosting the T20 World Cup, faces an unpredictable Ireland in their opening Group B match on Sunday.
• The team enters the tournament after a disappointing 0-3 whitewash by England in a home T20 series.
• Sri Lanka's main concern is inconsistency in both batting and bowling under pressure situations.
• Key players like Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis, and veteran Kusal Perera are crucial for Sri Lanka's top-order performance.
• Ireland, led by Paul Stirling, aims to build on recent wins against Italy and UAE, hoping to upset Sri Lanka.
