India Preview

India’s batting lineup is a formidable force, with the likes of Suryakumar Yadav, Shubman Gill, and Rishabh Pant capable of dominating any bowling attack. The middle order, anchored by Hardik Pandya, provides stability and firepower.

The bowling unit, led by the experienced Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj, is equally impressive, with the ability to extract wickets at regular intervals. The spin duo of Axar Patel and Ravi Bishnoi adds depth and variety to the attack.

Sri Lanka Preview

The island nation’s batting relies heavily on the experienced duo of Kusal Mendis and Charith Asalanka. Their ability to build solid partnerships will be crucial. The inclusion of young talents like Pathum Nissanka and Avishka Fernando adds depth to the batting lineup.

The Sri Lankan bowling attack, led by the experienced duo of Dilshan Madushanka and Matheesha Pathirana, will need to be at their best to contain the formidable Indian batting lineup. The spin duo of Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana will play a crucial role in slowing down the Indian run rate.
