Bhanuka Rajapaksa left behind by tourists from XI
In Rajkot night games, the captain is expected to throw the ball first if the toss is won. However, in the T20I series decider, both the Indian and Sri Lankan captains said they wanted to hit first.In the toss, Hardik Pandya won the pick when Dasun Shanaka mis-called.
The pitch is expected to be sticky early on, but Hardik said he expects momentum early in the second inning. He didn’t say he prepared for such a situation in the tournament this time by allowing his team to bilaterally do less desirable in his series. India did nothing to change the 11 men they lost in Pune. Shivam surprised Mavi with some big goals in the Pune match, which also saw India finish in seventh place. Speculation is rife that he wants to get the Washington Thunder, also at bat, to the exclusion of Yusvendra Chahal.
Sri Lanka changed his eleven and Avishka he left Bhanuka rajapaksa in Fernando’s place. Rajapaksa failed to set his best time in the series and Shanaka said Fernando is in good shape for Lanka in his premier league.
