Sri Lanka beat India by six wickets in the last T20I between the sides.
India will take on Sri Lanka in a three-match T20I series, starting on Tuesday at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The following two T20Is will be played in Pune and Rajkot on January 5 and 7, respectively. The last time the two teams locked horns in the shortest format, Sri Lanka stunned India by six wickets in Dubai and virtually knocked it out of the Asia Cup.
India’s highest-ever T20I score came against Sri Lanka in Indore in 2017, when Rohit Sharma’s blistering 43-ball 118 left the Sri Lanka bowlers gasping. Rohit, who will miss the series, is the lone centurion in T20Is between India and Sri Lanka.
