Rohit Sharma-led India will be hoping for a more consistent performance when they take on hosts Sri Lanka in Colombo today. Notably, the Men in Blue had drawn the first ODI after needing just 1 run off 14 balls, much to the disappointment of the Indian fans and skipper.
In the 1st ODI, the Indian bowlers did their job well, restricting Sri Lanka to 230/8 in their 50 overs. The score would have been even lower had Dunith Wellalage not played a counter-attacking knock of 67 runs to give his side the momentum they needed.
Team India started on a high thanks to a brilliant 33-ball half-century from the skipper and a supporting role for Shubman Gill. However, the Indian innings fell like a pack of cards after Rohit’s dismissal and the Men in Blue found themselves in a precarious position at 132/5. Fortunately, some good innings from Axar Patel and Shivam Dube took them close to victory, needing just 1 run from 14 balls, but the successive wickets of Shivam Dube and Arshdeep Singh took the match out of India’s grasp.
India and Sri Lanka playing XI:
Sri Lanka: Pathum Nissanka, Avishka Fernando, Kusal Mendis (WK), Sadeera Samarawickrama, Charith Asalanka (C), Kamindu Mendis (reolacing Mohamed Shiraz), Janith Liyanage, Dunith Wellalage, Akila Dananjaya, Asitha Fernando, Jeffrey Vandersay (replacing Wanindu Hasaranga).
