India Today
India tour of Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI Preview: Shikhar Dhawan and his men will be hoping to come up with another dominant performance against the hosts who are struggling to find form in the white-ball format. India though would want a better show from their new-ball bowlers on Tuesday in Colombo.
Shikhar Dhawan-led young Indian side played a refreshing and attacking brand of ODI cricket as they began their tour of Sri Lanka with an emphatic 7-wicket win over the hosts at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. Even as the Test regulars are gearing up for the 5-Test series, the likes of Prithvi Shaw and Ishan Kishan lit up the iconic venue, flaunting India's bench strength. The gulf of class between India's 'second-string' side and Sri Lanka's first-choice XI was quite evident as the tourists gunned down a total of 262 in just 36.4 overs in the series opener.More Related News
