Indian cricket team will be playing against Sri Lanka in the third and the last T20I of the series on Saturday, 7th January at Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot, Gujarat. The three-game T20I series is tied at 1-1 as Sri Lanka defeated the host in the second T20I by 16 runs.
Despite the loss, there were some positives to take from the second T20I for India. Suryakumar Yadav was back in form and Axar Patel is delivering with ball and bat as well. It doesn’t seem there will be any changes to the Indian team in the third T20I as the team was balanced. There could be some changes in the bowling unit for India as the performance in the second game wasn’t much impressive from the home side.
Predicted playing XI of India against Sri Lanka (3rd T20I):
Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav, Rahul Tripathi, Hardik Pandya(C), Deepak Hooda, Axar Patel, Shivam Mavi, Ishan Kishan, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Umran Malik.
