India look to limit lapses as they eye another bilateral T20I series win (ESPNcricinfo.com)

Big picture · When India announced their squad for the three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka, their seam bowling looked thin on experience.

At the [T20 World Cup](https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/342619.html?class=3;series=14450;template=results;type=batting;view=innings), he managed only 125 runs in seven innings at a strike rate of 119.04. He fared even worse in the recently concluded [Lanka Premier League](https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/records/batting/most_runs_career.html?id=14821;team=6785;type=tournament): 95 runs in seven innings at 105.55.

[squad](https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/sri-lanka-in-india-2022-23-1348629/india-t20i-squad-1351419/series-squads)for the three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka, their seam bowling looked thin on experience. Sri Lanka will hope for a similar result to keep the series alive. Once again, there is not much dew expected, with the temperature at night hovering around 18°C. [first T20I](https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/sri-lanka-in-india-2022-23-1348629/india-vs-sri-lanka-1st-t20i-1348640/full-scorecard), Arshdeep was unavailable as he failed to recover fully from a viral illness. But they will draw confidence from the fact that in the first game, their spinners, [Wanindu Hasaranga](https://www.espncricinfo.com/player/wanindu-hasaranga-de-silva-784379)and [Maheesh Theekshana](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/maheesh-theekshana-1138316), outbowled their Indian counterparts, Yuzvendra Chahal and Axar Patel. At one stage, it looked like they would struggle to reach even 150 after being reduced to 94 for 5 in the 15th over. But in the first T20I, he bowled hard lengths to pick up 2 for 27 from his four overs.

Sanju Samson was ruled out due to a knee injury on Wednesday · Rahul Tripathi, 31, likely to make T20I debut · Bowlers Harshal Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal under ...

The last T20I in Pune saw India score in excess of 200 but it remains to be seen if will be a batter-friendly pitch for Thursday's T20I. In the bowling department, Harshal Patel's inability to control the runs at the death is proving to be a cause for concern. The left-hander struggled for runs in the T20 World Cup and failed to get going in the recently-concluded Lanka Premier League as well. If Arshdeep Singh, who missed out of the 1st T20I due to illness, recovers in time, Harshal might be the one making way for the lef-arm pacer. Rahul Tripathi, who has been travelling with the squad for quite some time now, is likely to make his T20I debut. Sri Lanka will be hoping to bounce back and keep the series alive.
