The second T20 International of the three-match series will take place tonight between India and Sri Lanka at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. The match will start at 8pm Indian time. The stadium has played three ODIs and one T20 International so far between India and Sri Lanka. In the last match of the One Day International series, the rain ruined the game a bit, but it did not rain in the remaining matches. The rain may cast a shadow over the second T20 international. If we look at the weather in Colombo, it will be cloudy this evening.
Depending on the weather, rainfall is possible, but not heavy rainfall. In such a situation, even if it rains, it doesn’t make much difference to the outcome of the game. India won the series by 38 runs and are currently leading 1-0 in the series. If India wants to win this match to take an unbeaten lead in the series, Sri Lanka would like to return to the series with a win. In the ODI series, after winning the first two matches, India allowed five players to make their debut. The same can be seen in this series. Take a look at the latest weather updates –
India’s Possible Playing XI: Shikhar Dhawan (Captain), Prithvi Shah, Sanju Samson, Suryakumar Yadav, Ishaan Kishan, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Deepak Chahar, Yuzvendra Chahal, Varun Chakravarthy.
