India vs Sri Lanka (Ind vs SL) 2nd T20: Although jolted by rain, damp pitch and a comedy of errors with hand dryers and steam irons, India’s hopes of resuming their fine streak of form into the new decade won’t be diminished. The Men in Blue will take on Sri Lanka in the second of the three-match T20I series at Holkar Cricket Stadium, Indore on Tuesday.

While Virat Kohli will look to surpass Rohit Sharma to become the leading run-getter in T20Is, the returning Jasprit Bumrah will concentrate on getting two more wickets to go past India’s leading wicket-taker in T20Is — Ravichandran Ashwin (52 wickets).
Considering the Men in Blue’s home form and the strength of their side, India will hope to start off the series quite comfortably, as again they have won 11 out of 16 T20Is against Sri Lanka — joint-most for India against an opponent along with Australia.
After back-to-back T20I series victories against Bangladesh and West Indies, India will look to carry on with the wind on their sail. The third match of the series is in Pune on Friday.
