India vs Sri Lanka Tournament Prediction & Betting Tips 2022

This series is going to be a crucial one as far as the ODI world cup is concerned because that tournament will be played in the same conditions. This young brigade has the ability to beat Sri Lanka yet again in one more series. Surya Kumar Yadav is not an amazing knock. Shubhman Gill and Shreyash Ayyar have played some good innings in the previous matches. Mohammad Siraj, Mohammed Shami and Shardul Thakur have bowled well recently. Washington Sunder did well with the bat and bowl against Bangladesh. Bumrah’s presence will also make the bowling attack sharpen. India may name this series 2-1 or whitewash 3-0.

India vs Sri Lanka Match Toss Prediction

Pitch of Barsapara Cricket Stadium has a balanced track where both bowlers and batsmen will get equal opportunities. It is considered to be slow pitch so we expect 250-260 runs for the team playing first. It is a decent total here because slow outfield and little bit turn may trouble the team facing the target.

Weather Report

On Tuesday it will be a clear sky in Guwahati and good match conditions. Temperature is expected to be 27 degree celsius. No chance of raining but humidity may take a test for the players as the humidity will be near about 70%. Wind may blow with the speed of 5 KMPH.
