India and Sri Lanka regroup for T20 clash

Tuesday, 7 January 2020 15:56

The second game of the three-match Twenty20 International series between India and Sri Lanka will be played in Indore on Tuesday.

The opening clash on Sunday was abandoned due to rain, which means a win today for either team will ensure that they won't lose the series.

The match kicks off at 5:30 pm UAE time.

If recent form is anything to go by, Team India are overwhelming favourites.

The hosts are heading into the New Year contest on the back of consecutive series wins against Bangladesh and West Indies.
