Both teams head into the only T-20 fixture to learn a thing or two before finalizing their squads for the World T 20 to be held in Sri Lanka in September. Indian team is on a high after defeating the Lankan Tigers in their own den but then T 20 is something which is more of a lottery!!
For Sri Lanka, Mahela will open the innings which will be a boost for the Lankan team. India are without Sehwag and Zaheer for this tie. Eyes will also be on Rohit after a horrendous run of form in the 5 ODI's.
Key Players
India
M S Dhoni
His tactics will, like always have a say in the scheme of things. As will his Luck!!!
Gautam Gambhir
How he starts always has an effect on how the rest of the team plays.
Irfan Pathan
How can we ignore him after his performance in the ODI series!!
Sri Lanka
Mahela Jayawardene
The captain of Sri Lanka is a totally different player when he open the innings. All class and elegance.
Tillakeratne Dilshan
The dasher can get Sri Lanka off to a flying start and can tear apart the already fragile Indian attack.
Thisara Perera
The Big All Rounder can single handedly win matches either with his bowling or batting.
Keeping the post short just like the T-20 game!!!
