Sri Lanka vs India Preview
India are not at full strength for this series but still have plenty of quality. The value for me is with Shubman Gill in the run scoring markets.

Head to Head
India have been victorious in three of their last five T20I against the Sri Lankans.
Sri Lanka Form
This is the first time Sri Lanka return to the cricket field after their exit from the 2024 T20 Cricket World Cup.
While that campaign didn’t go according to plan, Sri Lanka did end on a high with a 83-run win over the Netherlands. In that match, Kusal Mendis and Charith Asalanka both scored 46 runs in a 201-run total.
Overall, Sri Lanka have lost four of their last six T20I matches.
Sri Lanka Injuries & Team News
Charith Asalanka captains the side with plenty of experience in the squad. There are also a few younger players that they may have a look at.
India Form
India are in a great place in the T20 format and their form is incredible. They won the 2024 T20 Cricket World Cup, beating South Africa in the final by seven runs.
That was followed by a five-match series against Zimbabwe, a series India won 4-1 after losing the opening match of the series. India also sent a completely second-string side to Zimbabwe for that series.
India Injuries & Team News
India are nowhere near full strength for this series but still have many top players in the squad. Suryakumar Yadav will captain the side.
Verdict
I am backing Shubman Gill to top score in an Indian win. Kusal Mendis is tipped in the same market for the hosts.
