Preview
The three-match ODI series between Sri Lanka and India will culminate on Friday. The final game will be played on Friday with the hosts looking to gain crucial 10 World Cup Super League points having already lost the series. Their players have improved significantly over the course of two matches and would love to end the series with a win.
India, on the other hand, have been exceptional. They were down and out in the 276-run chase in the last game only to be revived by Deepak Chahar with the bat. All their bases look covered and even if they decide to give chances to the fringe players in this game, the visitors look favourites to make it 3-0 in the series.

Captaincy Picks for SL vs IND
Shikhar Dhawan
India skipper Shikhar Dhawan has been the fulcrum of the visitors’ batting line-up. He played a match-winning knock of 86 runs and also scored 29 runs in the previous game. The left-hander will be keen on ending the series on a high and also gear up for the T20I series where the stakes will be a lot higher.
Chamika Karunratne
Sri Lanka’s all-rounder Chamika Karunratne has been impressive so far in the series. He is yet to be dismissed in the two matches and has scored 87 runs. He also delivered 8 overs but is yet to pick up a wicket. However, he is a very good captaincy option in this match.
