No bowlers are looking in good rhythm. Same applies to the top Indian batters; they have not contributed enough for their teams in the two matches they have played so far.
Inspite of the problems, it is unlikely that Dhoni will change the playing XI which won against
All in all Sunday’s game will provide us another chance to see these two teams in battle again.
Watch out for
Tilakratne Dilshan: He has recovered well from his groin injury and likely to return into the squad. It will be interesting to see how he approaches the game after return. He was in superb form before he got injured. With Upul Tharanga is in superb touch it makes more interesting to see both the deadly duo bat together.
Gautam Gambhir and Virendra Sehwag: These two batsmen failed to perform in the tournament as per their reputation but its just matter of few good shots to get their confidence back. If these two gets going it will be nightmare for the Sri Lankan bowlers.
