Preview :
After an exciting ODI series, Sri Lanka and India are set to lock horns in a three-match T20I series. The Second game is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, July 27 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. The hosts have some momentum in their favour after they won the third ODI by three wickets.
The Men in Blue experimented quite a bit in the last ODI, but they are likely to go back to their full-strength team for the 2nd T20I. On the head-to-head count, India are ahead of the Lankans by quite a distance. It goes without saying that the home team needs to put forth their A-game to come out trumps.
