Toss Sri Lanka chose to field vs India
Arshdeep Singh did not find a spot as India decided to go with Shivam Dube as a seam-bowling allrounder, along with Axar Patel and Washington Sundar as spin-bowling allrounders. The two fingerspinners are joined by legspinner Ravi Bishnoi in a spin-heavy attack. Jasprit Bumrah is the only specialist fast bowler in the side.
Both teams’ quarter-finals were washed out, and they made the semi-final because of their superior ranking as compared to their opponents. The weather is good, but if this game ends without a result, India will progress to the final as they are the higher ranked team between the two.
