Sri Lanka is favored to win at this point. 125/1 through 23.1 overs. The 1 wicket is huge because Sri Lanka has their best batters in play and you can take risks more freely with 9 wickets to mess around with

To clarify, those risks Sri Lanka can take with wickets in hand are going for 4s and 6s if needed or running when it might be close. If you only have a couple of wickets left, you have to play defensively. It's like being up 3-0 in the count rather than down 0-2. I'm trying as many cross sport analogies as possible to give context.
I'm no cricket expert, but I was born in South Africa and my dad spent many hours watching cricket during his 15 years there and explained things according to his perspective over the years.
