India will be eager to seal the series on Thursday as they will fight a battle with Sri Lanka in the second One Day International. The host took a significant lead of 1-0 in the three-match series following the first One Day International. Batting first in the match, India caused carnage by recording a score of 373 runs. Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill laid the foundation with their opening partnership. But it was Virat Kohli who stole all the thunder by smacking his much-awaited 73rd international century. The former skipper hammered the Sri Lankan bowlers all over the park. Chasing the score, Sri Lanka were restricted to 306 runs in 50 overs. Dasun Shanaka lived up to his reputation as he fought tooth and nail in the series. The middle-order batter hit a century but back to support resulted in a massive 67-run defeat for the island nation. Apart from Shanaka, Pathum Nissanka was another player to do well with the bat with the knock of 72 runs. Meanwhile, India are the favorites to win the game.

India and Sri Lanka are all set to lock horns with each other in the 50-over format. We are backing India to win the first One Day International to take a significant lead of 1-0. The Men in Blue have a phenomenal record in the ODIs while playing at home. India did not fare well in their last ODI series. They lost to Bangladesh two months back. The team lost the first and second matches to lose the series by 2-1. With the ODI World Cup just a couple of months away, India will be eager to get back to form. Moreover, apart from Rishabh Pant and Jasprit Bumrah, all the senior players are available for selection. Coming to Sri Lanka, they did well in their last ODI series. The team was up against Afghanistan in the three-match series. The series ended in a draw as both Sri Lanka and Afghanistan scored victories in one game each. Meanwhile, one game was canceled due to rain. Predicted Winner IND vs SL | 10 Jan 13:30 PMBet ₹500, payout ₹630 Sri Lanka’s Dasun Shanaka will be the player to watch out.

The final T20 International of the three-match series between Sri Lanka and India is scheduled to be played on Saturday in Rajkot. Both the teams will be pumped up to do well and take the trophy home. India and Sri Lanka have done equally well in the series so far. India were brilliant in the first game as they scored a win by two runs. Deepak Hooda and Shivam Mavi ensured a victory for the team as the host defended 162 runs. Sri Lanka made a comeback in the second match by recording a win by 16 runs. Dasun Shanaka and Kusal Mendis scored 56 and 52 runs respectively to take their team to a score of 206 runs. Chasing the target, Axar Patel put up a good fight. The spin all-rounder hammered 65 runs. However, in the end, the Men in Blue fell short of 16 runs.

The Men in Blue lost two important tournaments, namely Asia Cup 2022 and T20 World Cup 2022 last year. However, they have not lost a bilateral T20I series for over a year.

India will be high on momentum as they will start the second T20 International with a lead of 1-0. The team now needs just one victory from the remaining two games to seal the series. The first T20I saw the supremacy of the Indian batters on the 22-yard pitch.
Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer slammed 89 and 57 runs respectively to take India to a big score of 199 runs. Sri Lankan bowlers couldn’t do much in the first innings as they picked only two wickets.
In the second innings, it was another poor performance by the visiting batters. Sri Lankan batters continued their disastrous form from the Australian series as they could score only 137 runs. Charith Asalanka was the only one to stand out with his half-century. For the visitors to level the series, the batters will have to find their rhythm.
Due to the brilliant form of India, they are the favorites to win the second T20 International.
Ishan Kishan exploited the favorable conditions in Lucknow to the maximum during the first T20 International as he hammered the Sri Lankan bowlers all over the park. The opening batter finally regained his form and delivered a superlative performance by smacking 89 runs off 56 balls. The odds suggest another brilliant performance by the youngster on Saturday.
