Indian batsmen in superb form
On the tour of Sri Lanka, the Indian batsmen are looking at a great rhythm. Captain Virat Kohli himself is leading the team from the front. Apart from this, Rohit Sharma, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, and Hardik Pandya have proved their usefulness on important occasions. In the T20, Ajinkya Rahane and Lokesh Rahul have also performed well.
Indian bowling looks strong
Sometimes bowling was considered as a weak link to Team India. Today, the power of Team India is seen. On the shoulders of Jaspreet Bumrah, selected ‘Man of the Series’ in the ODI series, will be an Indian bowling attack. He has taken 15 wickets in the ODI series. Apart from them Bhubaneswar Kumar and Shardul Thakur will accompany them. In the spin department, the team will depend on Yuvraj Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, and Akshar Patel.
Lost in the last T20 against the West Indies
Team India had to face defeat in the one-off T-20 match on the tour of the West Indies. In that T20 match, the West Indies beat India by 9 wickets. Obviously, T20 is a format where any team can turn around. In such a situation, Team India needs to be careful about Sri Lanka in this one-off match.
Sri Lanka to seek for first win
The hosts will have to try to win the first win against India at this stage. In the T20, Sri Lanka will play for the first time in the captaincy of their new captain, Upul Tharanga. After being removed from Angelo Mathews in July, Tharanga has been given the command of the team in ODIs and T20s. Apart from Tharanga, the team will have a great responsibility on Mathews, Nirojana Dikewela, Seekkuge Prasanna, and Dilshan. In the team, the legspinner, fast bowler Isuru Udana, Vikum Sanjaya and Suranga Lakmal have got a place in the team. These will be the challenge of fastening India’s strong batting line up at the earliest.
