IND vs SL Dream11 Match Preview

India lost their first game of the Super 4 round against Pakistan by 5 wickets. The batters did a great job but the poor show from the bowlers and fielders let the game slip away from them. Virat Kohli is finally back in form and this is the best news for the Indian team. Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul batted with a changed approach in the last game. They looked to exploit the field restrictions to the fullest. Suryakumar Yadav has been in top form as well.  

The middle-order needs to be consistent in the batting unit. The bowlers looked off colour in the last game and they need to be back in form for this match. Ravi Bishnoi was excellent in his first Asia Cup match while Arshdeep Singh continues to impress with his bowling The likes of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Hardik Pandya need to take responsibility with the ball. India must win this game to stay alive in the tournament. 

Sri Lanka, meanwhile, has been in exceptional form as a team. They have won two games in a row after losing their first game. They are playing as a team with all the players doing well. The batters have played some impactful knocks with all of them scoring 30-35 runs in just 15 20 balls. They defeated Afghanistan by 4 wickets in their last game by chasing down 179 runs.

Sri Lanka needs some improvement in their bowling, especially in the pace department. Their pacers are young and inexperienced but they need to do well in this all-important game.
