The pitch for today's match is new and drier. There are some visible cracks so expect some turn. Slower deliveries are going to work on this surface. There will be dew and captains are going to bowl first for sure. 170 should be a good total on this pitch.
Sri Lanka did one change in their playing XI as Chamindu Wickramasinghe replaced Dasun Shanaka whereas in the Indian outfit, Hardik Pandya, Rishabh Pant, Axar Patel and Arshdeep Singh have been rested. Shubman Gill, Washington Sundar, Khaleel Ahmed and Shivam Dube are in the playing XI for the last T20I.
