IND vs SL 2nd ODI Match Preview: Probable XI, Head-to-Head Stats, Dream11 Predictions And Weather Report – News18

Following a 3-0 whitewash of Sri Lanka in the T20I series, the Indian side will now be seeking ODI triumph. India recently faced Sri Lanka in the ODI series opener where the match eventually ended in a draw. With the Rohit Sharma-led side fielding first, the hosts were able to reach 230/8. The Indian bowling duo of Axar Patel and Arshdeep Singh found the most impact, combining for four wickets. During the run chase, skipper Rohit stepped up with a half-century to earn a terrific start for India. But the visitors kept losing wickets at regular intervals and eventually found themselves bowled out for 230. Team India will now be aiming for their first ODI victory under the coaching of Gautam Gambhir this weekend.

The R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo will host the second ODI between India and Sri Lanka on Sunday, August 4. Sri Lanka have not won a single ODI in their last six matches against India. The hosts will be looking for redemption in the upcoming fixture on Sunday.
