Analysis:
Team India is studded with power-hitters in the squad and batters are performing well in the tournament. While KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma are hitting the ball well, batting till deep is a major concern for both. Virat Kohli has found his mojo back in the tournament and has been making a statement with back-to-back half-centuries. Rishabh Pant has only played in one game in the tournament and will be looking to find some momentum in the next game. Although, Yuzvendra Chahal is a great performer in the shortest format, he has failed to pick wickets in the tournament.
Meanwhile, Dasun Shanaka-led side have won two games on the bounce. Although, bowlers have conceded runs in both the matches, batters came strong for Sri Lanka as they notched up two incredible wins for their side on the trot. The likes of Rajapaksa, Kusal Mendis, and Gunathilaka are scoring crucial runs for their side and Shanaka will rely heavily on these batters.
