India vs Sri Lanka, 2nd T20I, As it happened: India trounce Lanka by 7 wickets to take a 1-0 lead in the series

India win by 7 wickets (PIc: @BCCI)

Indore, January 7: India beat Sri Lanka by 7 wickets to take a 1-0 lead in the series.

India will face Sri Lanka in the first T20I on Tuesday (January 7) with an eye on a series lead here at the Holkar Stadium. The first T20I between the two sides was abandoned without a ball being bowled at Guwahati on Sunday.

India might not make too many changes from the Playing XI that was named for the first T20I because the match did not take place. But they will be keen to know the fitness level Jasprit Bumrah and Shikhar Dhawan, who will open with KL Rahul in the absence of rested Rohit Sharma, achieved.

Bumrah and Dhawan made recoveries from their respective injuries and made comeback in this series. Will India take the lead or the Lankans under Malinga will offer some surprise? Follow MyKhel Live Updates here.
