To end the 27-year wait, Sri Lanka awaits a historic win in the 3rd ODI
After their win against India in the IND vs. SL 2nd ODI, the Sri Lanka cricket team is on the verge of creating history. After managing to draw the first ODI, Sri Lanka outclassed India with a clinical performance with bat and, most importantly, ball. With this defeat, India are also on the verge of facing a series defeat, which will also happen to be Gautam first as head coach.
If Sri Lanka manages to defeat India in the 3rd ODI, then it will be the first time in 27 years that they have won a bilateral series against the Men in Blue. The last time they did so was in 1997.
After a hammering in the T20I series at the hands of SKY and co., Sri Lanka bounced back in an unexpected fashion in the ODI series, stunning the visitors.
India, on the other hand, will have to get things right in terms of their sloppy batting. With just a few ODIs left ahead of the Champions Trophy, it is imperative for Rohit Sharma and co. to get back to winning ways.
