3rd ODI: India to play against Sri Lanka at Pallekele
27 August,Pallekele
In Cricket, India will take on Sri Lanka in the third ODI at Pallekele today. The match will begin at 2:30 PM Indian Time. All India Radio will broadcast ball-by-ball commentary in Hindi and English on the match.
The commentary can be heard on Rajdhani, FM Gold and additional frequencies from 2 PM onwards.
Having a two-Nil lead in the five-match series, India will be seeking to wrap up the contest with another win today. The visitors registered a comfortable 9 wickets win in the first ODI but had a slight hiccup while chasing moderate target 231 in the second ODI.
For that, Virat Kohli might make few changes in the playing eleven though he has shown intent of keeping it unchanged, like in the previous two ODIs. For hosts Chamara Kapugedara will be the stand in skipper as Upul Tharanga has been handed a two-match suspension for slow over-rate.
The Lankan team would also look to change their fortunes, stay in hunt and record a win against India during this tour. Earlier, India had white washed them 3-Nil in the Test series.
