SL vs IND Dream11 Prediction

The Gautam Gambhir and Suryakumar Yadav era began with a win as India defeated Sri Lanka by 43 runs in the first game. Batting first, India posted a massive total of 213/7 in 20 overs courtesy of a destructive fifty from the skipper Surya. Sri Lanka began the chase in style as Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Perera attacked in the powerplay. However, Indian bowlers scripted a solid comeback to dismiss the home side for 170/10 in 19.2 overs. India will now look to seal the series by winning this contest, while Sri Lanka will look to level the series by bouncing back.
