 The Visitors will look to continue the dominance in the T20 Series 

 

Preview

The Sri Lankan team surprised the Indian team in the last ODI and they certainly got the momentum going into the T20 series. One win can certainly boost the confidence of the team who forgot to win the match. The T20I series is the best chance for the Sri Lankan team to take the revenge of humiliation in the last few months. The stage is set and they are playing in their own backyard. The Indian team is packed with the IPL stars, and they are more dangerous in the shorter format of the game. The spinners of both the teams need to step up, as we have seen the importance of slow bowlers in T20 cricket. The Sri Lankan team have played well in the last two ODI’s and the result could have been different if Deepak Chahar hadn’t played that gem of a knock. The Visitors had one bad day at the office, but they are still the more dangerous side on paper.

Pitch Report  

The pitch is certainly gripping for the spinners, as the three ODI have already been played on the same deck. The low scoring encounter is on the cards, as both the teams have got good spinners.

Match Prediction

The Indian team is superior in all three departments, and they have got T20 stars in the team to neutralise the opposition's threat. The men in blue are clear favorites for the 1st T20, but T20 is the most unpredictable format as the weaker teams surprise most of the time particularly in this format.
