Hey guys, welcome back to SlogVlog. I hope you are well because I am not (I got boring stuff like school). Anyways I just wanted to congratulate team India for beating Sri Lanka in a thriller. So in today’s post, I will be doing a preview of the 3rd ODI between these two teams (Sri Lanka and India). Let’s start by looking at the probable 11 for both teams.
PROBABLE 11 FOR SRI LANKA:
- Avishka Fernando
- Minod Bhanuka (WK)
- Bhanuka Rajapaksa
- Dhananjaya De Silva
- Dasun Sanaka (C)
- Charith Asalanka
- Wanindu Hasaranga
- Chamika Karunaratne
- Isuru Udana
- Dushumantha Chameera
- Lakshan Sandakan
PROBABLE 11 FOR INDIA:
- Devdutt Padikkal
- Shikhar Dhawan (C)
- Suryakumar Yadav
- Sanju Samson (WK)
- Manish Pandey
- Hardik Pandya
- Krunal Pandya
- Deepak Chahar
- Bhuvneshwar Kumar
- Kuldeep Yadav
- Yuzvendra Chahal
As you can see above, I have made two changes to the Indian side. I replaced Ishan Kishan with Sanju Samson and Prithvi Shaw with Devdutt Padikkal. I replaced Ishan Kishan with Samson because Ishan didn’t do good batting in the last ODI. And I feel Samson deserves a chance.
I replaced Shaw with Padikkal because Shaw also didn’t do good batting in the last ODI and Devdutt Padikkal deserves to make his ODI debut after all the hard work he did in the IPL.
Pitch Report:
The R Premadasa Stadium, as we know, is a superb batting pitch. But it hasn’t been like one. The usual batting average in the 1st innings is 305, but now it has reduced to about 290 runs. So I’d suggest the team which wins the toss should choose to ball first. The spinners may come in handy when the middle overs are going on.

Prediction:
We pick Team India to win the 3rd ODI. After the kind of cricket they have played against SL, we are confident that India will win. SL can not lose hope because they have to win this 3rd ODI for the fans and their reputation. They will be very upset if they get whitewashed against this young Indian side—Good Luck to both teams.
