India will square off against Sri Lanka in the last Super Fours contest of the ongoing Asia Cup at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai on Friday. The Men in Blue have failed to bring their best in the field and they would aim to fill in the holes against the Island country.
As India has already qualified for the final, they could make changes to their playing XI to give other players a go. Jasprit Bumrah could be rested and Arshdeep Singh can take his place in the team.
Sri Lanka, on the other hand, would want to deliver a better performance as they haven’t been at their best with the bat.
Stats Preview:
Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya needs three wickets to become the second Indian bowler after Arshdeep Singh to complete 100 scalps in T20Is. He needs four sixes to complete 100 maximums in T20Is.
