The second match of the 3-match ODI series between India and Sri Lanka will be played on August 4 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. The first match of the series was a draw, so the second match is going to be decisive. Both the captains will try to win this match and take the lead in the series. This match will be held at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.
The middle order of the Indian team was completely failing in the first. match. Along with this, some changes were seen in the batting order. This may not happen in this match. The team winning the toss will want to bat first. If India wants to maintain its dominance against Sri Lanka, it will have to find a way to deal with the spinners and slow pitch in Sunday’s ODI. Chasing the target of 231 runs in the first ODI, India was looking in a good position at 130 runs for three wickets, but after this Sri Lankan spinners became dominant and the Indian team was out for 230 runs, due to which the match remained tied.
As far as Sri Lanka is concerned, they have been struggling with middle order and lower order problems, their recent success has come because of the top order and Pathum Nissanka has played the most important role in this. He has scored 497 runs in six ODIs, the highest in the world this year. During this period, his strike rate was also 122.41, which is the highest among the batsmen who have scored at least 200 runs. If Sri Lanka has to challenge India then they would like Nissanka’s bat to speak.
