Preview

In the third T20I of the three-match series, Sri Lanka will compete against India at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Pallekele. Following their two consecutive batting collapses, Sri Lanka allowed India to win matches from tough situations. With the series result already decided, India are expected to give chances to the remaining players in the squad for the third T20I, while Sri Lanka will try to ensure that they don’t repeat the mistakes from the earlier matches.

Pitch Report

The pitches at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Pallekele have produced two contrasting first innings totals in the first two T20I matches between India and Sri Lanka, but the batters still got the better of the conditions in comparison to the bowlers. With that, the average first innings score of 170 might not be enough for both teams to defend in the third T20I.

Team Analysis

Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka opening pair of Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis have played exceptionally in the first two T20Is of the series, but the lack of runs from the rest of the batters, who collapsed in a heap against the Indian bowlers, hasn’t helped their cause at all. In the bowling side of things, Matheesha Pathirana and Wanindu Hasaranga have picked up wickets for Sri Lanka in the first two T20I matches, but the other Sri Lankan bowlers haven’t been able to replicate their performances.

India

Yashasvi Jaiswal has batted with great intent for India in the powerplay overs in the first two T20Is against Sri Lanka, allowing the likes of Rishabh Pant, Suryakumar Yadav, and Hardik Pandya to capitalise on the good starts. The likes of Arshdeep Singh, Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi, and Riyan Parag have been amongst wickets in critical stages for India in the first two T20Is, helping them secure wins in the latter stages.
