India vs Sri Lanka, 3rd T20I, records and stats at Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot

Sri Lanka defeated India by 16 runs in the second T20I at Pune. When Sri Lanka batted first, they scored 206 runs thanks to some useful contributions. Kusal Mendis scored 52(31), Charith Asalanka 37(19), and Dasun Shanaka 56(22) to help their team beat the Indians. In response, India only managed 190 runs in their allotted 20 overs. Suryakumar Yadav scored 51 (36), while Axar Patel scored 65 (31), keeping the Indians in contention. They were, however, 16 runs short. The series is currently tied at 1-1, with the decider planned for January 7 in Rajkot.

The surface at Rajkot is batting heaven, with batters salivating at the prospect of playing on a flat wicket. The bowlers will not have much to work with on Rajkot’s pitch. In order to get some wickets, they would try to fool the hitters with their line and length. The dimensions of the field are not as large, but the hitters will make the most of it. We’re expecting a full game with no chance of rain. Last year, the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot held a T20I match between India and South Africa. India won that game by 82 runs after scoring 169 runs in total.
