  India vs Sri Lanka prediction

  

  India were ruthless against an albeit poor Pakistan side and will hope for more of the same against Sri Lanka. Their bowlers Hardik Pandya, Ravi Jadeja, and Umesh Yadav did a brilliant job of keeping the run rate in check while picking up wickets at key times with Pakistan’s opening partnership of 47 their best in the innings. Upul Tharanga top-scored for Sri Lanka with 57 but several batsmen got starts and then got out. Someone will need to go big if they are to beat India.

  • Ajinkya Rahane to be India’s best batsman – 4.33
  • Niroshan Dikwella to be Sri Lanka’s best batsman – 5.00
