In the third and final of the series, India would look ti level the series when Rohit Sharma’s men take on Sri Lanka at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo today (August 7). After a tense tie in the first match and Sri Lanka’s impressive win in the second, the three-match series between the 2011 World Cup finalists now stands at 1-0 in favour of the Lankan Lions. However, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma and coach Gautam Gambhir will be determined to leave no stone unturned to maintain their undefeated streak against their southern neighbours in One Day International (ODI) cricket. Notably, Sri Lanka last defeated India in an ODI series 27 years ago, in 1997.
For the third ODI, the hosts, Sri Lanka, are likely to keep their playing XI intact after two favourable outcomes. However, the men in blue might consider some changes. Skipper Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Shubman Gill will once again lead the Indian batting attack, but all-rounder Shivam Dube might make way for another left-hander, Rishabh Pant. The Indian bowling attack is expected to remain unchanged for the third and decisive ODI.
