Good evening everybody!

Welcome to Zee News Sports live commentary of India vs Sri Lanka, 2nd T20I match, in Indore's Holkar Stadium.

It hasn't been a good experience by the Lankans this year in white-ball cricket. India has already won the first T20I against them in Cuttack, so if the Men in Blue win this, they will seal the series – and India will be undefeated in any bilateral series across formats this year.

The match will begin at 7:00 PM (Local time).


Sri Lanka have won the toss and have opted to field.


Teams:

India:  Rohit Sharma(c), Lokesh Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, MS Dhoni(w), Manish Pandey, Dinesh Karthik, Hardik Pandya, Kuldeep Yadav, Jaydev Unadkat, Jasprit Bumrah, Yuzvendra Chahal.

Sri Lanka: Niroshan Dickwella(w), Upul Tharanga, Kusal Perera, Angelo Mathews, Sadeera Samarawickrama, Asela Gunaratne, Thisara Perera(c), Chaturanga de Silva, Akila Dananjaya, Dushmantha Chameera, Nuwan Pradeep.
