India is set to lock horns with Sri Lanka in the third and final ODI of the 3-match ODI series. As Shikhar Dhawan-led India have clinched the series already, owing to Deepak Chahar’s remarkable all-round performance in the 2nd ODI, they will now aim for a series whitewash. On the other hand, Sri Lanka will play to salvage their pride and win this final ODI in home conditions.

Analysis
Leading the 3-match series 2-0, sealing the deal already, the Indian side have proven to be the superior team in this series, despite missing out on a few key players. However, the likes of Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shaw and Deepak Chahar have ensured comfortable wins against the hosts, which makes them the must-haves in one’s fantasy. Additionally, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav and Chahal have also impressed in their respective departments, which makes them a few smart picks from India in fantasy.
Although Sri Lanka have lost the series in their home condition, there are some positives to look at. The Dasun Shanaka-led side gave a tough fight to India in the second ODI as they picked 5 quick wickets, with India’s top order falling like a house of cards. Given that all-rounder, Wanindu Hasaranga can turn out to be the most valuable player from the Sri Lankan side. Besides, Avishka Fernando and De Silva can fetch some good points in one’s fantasy team from Sri Lanka’s end.
