MATCH PREDICTION: IND vs SL, 2nd TEST
The second and final Test between India and Sri Lanka will be held in Bengaluru starts tomorrow March 12 and will end on 16th March. The first Test was dominated by the hosts, who won it in three days. India won the first game by an innings and 222 runs at Mohali.
With a fantastic performance against Sri Lanka in Mohali, India returned to winning ways in Test cricket. They will be quite confident in their ability to deliver another outstanding performance in this game.
With the crushing setback last week, Sri Lanka stopped a three-match winning streak. If they want to be competitive in this match, they must enhance every element of their game.
