Match Preview:
Colombo, Sri Lanka: The Indian cricket team finds itself in a precarious position as they gear up to face Sri Lanka in the decisive third ODI on Wednesday, August 7th. After a disappointing loss in the second match, India will be desperate to avoid a series whitewash and salvage some pride.
The hosts, buoyed by their victory in the second ODI, will be looking to clinch the series and register a historic win against their formidable rivals. With the series on the line, both teams are expected to field their strongest playing eleven.
Key Factors to Watch Out For:
- India’s Batting Woes: The Indian batting lineup has struggled to adapt to the conditions, with multiple batters falling victim to LBW decisions. They will need to be more cautious against the Sri Lankan spinners and improve their shot selection.
- Sri Lanka’s Spin Threat: The Sri Lankan spin duo proved to be too hot to handle for the Indian batsmen in the second ODI. India will need to find a way to counter their threat.
- Rohit Sharma’s Captaincy: Under pressure to deliver, Indian captain Rohit Sharma will be expected to lead from the front and inspire his team to victory. His ability to make quick decisions and build partnerships will be crucial.

India:
Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Arshdeep Singh
