ind vs sl

<p>On the day the selectors were anticipated to announce the squad for the forthcoming white-ball home series against Sri Lanka, Tuesday, Yash Dhull, however, became trending on Twitter. According to several media sources, Dhull might be contending for a spot on the ODI squad.?</p>



<h2><strong>Who is Yash Dhul?</strong></h2>



<p>The Delhi-born Yash Dhull, a lanky middle-order batsman, rose to fame earlier this year when the Indian U-19 side won the World Cup by defeating England in the title game in February 2022. Dhull, the team's captain, received immediate praise for a few outstanding knocks that contributed to India winning the title. After that victory, the Delhi kid addressed the media and made it clear that he wanted to play for the senior national team as soon as possible.</p>



<p>Since then, he has collected 939 runs in 10 first-class games, smashing 4 hundred and 2 half-centuries at an average of over 67. He has one half-century under his belt and has scored 191 runs in six games in List A (domestic one-day matches), which are modest statistics in contrast.</p>



<p>The performances are excellent, but given the pool of quality that Indian cricket now possesses, one would surmise that the 20-year-old is still a long way from fulfilling his dream of representing Team India.</p>

</div></figure>



<p>Dhull may be gunning for a spot in the ODI team, according to some media sources, including one from Cricbuzz. When this fact was brought up, Twitter went into overdrive, and the youngster quickly became popular. We'll look at some of the responses. Some tweets expressed support, while others questioned whether Dhull deserved to be considered or if there were other candidates who were more deserving.</p>

<p><strong>India vs Sri Lanka 1st T20I: </strong>The Hardik Pandya-led India will begin their 2023 campaign with three Twenty20 Internationals against Sri Lanka, kicking in on January 3rd in Mumbai. The bilateral clash between the two teams will begin on Tuesday at Mumbai's iconic Wankhede Stadium. Here, we review the Wankhede Stadium playing surface as well as the Mumbai weather for the IND vs. SL 2023 contest.</p>



<p>The Indian selectors put their trust in youngsters to carry out the task. It would be exciting to watch who gets the chance to play in the starting XI with Sanju Samson and Ishan Kishan both in the team. Ishan Kishan has boosted his profile for the limited overs format after blasting a double century in the third ODI against Bangladesh. Suryakumar Yadav, who has just been named vice-captain, will want to maintain his superior quality in the shortest format of the game.</p>

<p>Sri Lanka's tour of India last year ended in an unexpected way for them, however. In that series, their captain Dasun Shanaka batted superbly, so he'll be looking to match that effort. In 2022, Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis shone for the island nation.</p>

<p>While fans are eagerly waiting for the T20I action to begin, Let's check out, 'will rain spoil the game?&nbsp;</p>



<h2 id="strong-india-vs-sri-lanka-1st-t-20-i-weather-forecast-strong"><strong>India vs Sri Lanka 1st T20I: Weather Forecast</strong></h2>



<p>India vs Sri Lanka | 1st T20I of Sri Lanka tour of India 2023 takes place on January 3 (Tuesday) at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, India. The match begins at 7:00 PM IST.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/placeholders/2025/12/post-100604-800x450-india-vs-sri-lanka-1st-t20i-weather-forecast-and-p.jpg" alt="India vs Sri Lanka 1st T20I: Weather forecast and pitch report for 1st T20I | IND vs SL 2023" class="wp-image-100605" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><a href="https://weather.com/en-IN/weather/tenday/l/b4a4461bf7dda2caba2c626bd09b3771a3bdfe8366f2c0cf5fe1bdd08bfbe8b7" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">weather.com</a></figcaption></figure>



<p>According to weather.com, on January 3 (Tuesday) the temperature of India?s Mumbai city will be 31? Celsius during the day and drop to 20? Celsius at night. The sky will be crystal clear. The chance of rain is 4% during the day and 2% at night. The humidity will be 50% during the day and increase to 59% at night. Winds will move towards North West at a speed of 10-15 kph</p>



<h2 id="strong-india-vs-sri-lanka-1st-t-20-i-pitch-report-strong"><strong>India vs Sri Lanka 1st T20I: Pitch Report</strong></h2>



<p>The Wankhede Stadium has hosted a total of 7 T20I fixtures so far. However, several IPL games have taken place for the teams to be aware of the venue. The track at Wankhede Stadium is flattish, with shorter boundaries. Consequently, a large number of runs should be scored. The fact that batting first leads in an average score of 195 shows what to expect on Tuesday.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/placeholders/2025/12/post-100604-800x450-india-vs-sri-lanka-1st-t20i-weather-forecast-and-p.jpg" alt="India vs Sri Lanka 1st T20I: Weather forecast and pitch report for 1st T20I | IND vs SL 2023
" class="wp-image-100606" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Wankhede Pitch repot (MCA/Twitter)</figcaption></figure>



<p>The Wankhede stadium's pitch is a batting haven. The batsmen would try to use the bowlers' pace as the ball skids off the surface. The batsmen would like to take advantage of the small boundaries as much as possible. Dew is anticipated to contribute and would only make the bowler's concerns worse. However, because there is some movement available early in the game, pacers can enjoy bowling the opening overs.</p>

<p><strong>Ind vs SL 2nd T20I:</strong> The Hardik Pandya-led India opened their 2023 campaign with a thrilling victory over Sri Lanka in the first Twenty20 International on January 3rd in Mumbai. India is currently hosting a bilateral T20I series against Sri Lanka, with the opening match held on Tuesday at Mumbai's iconic Wankhede Stadium where India won the contest by a close 2-run margin.</p>



<p>Shivam Mavi and Shubman Gill were handed the International caps in T20I for the first time. Shivam Mavi made it a dream debut while Shubman would be a bit upset with his performance. Shivam Mavi took 4 wickets in his quota of 4 overs whereas the Jammu Express, Umran Malik, took 2 wickets and also clicked 155kps <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/umran-malik-bowls-fastest-ball-by-an-indian-in-india-vs-sri-lanka-1st-t20i-breaks-bumrahs-record/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">(<strong>Read full article</strong>)</a>.

<h2 id="strong-ind-vs-sl-2nd-t-20-i-pitch-report-mca-strong"><strong>Ind vs SL 2nd T20I: Pitch Report MCA</strong></h2>



<p>The Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium has hosted a total of 3 T20I fixtures so far. However, several IPL games have taken place for the teams to be aware of the venue. The pitches at MCA Stadium are made of black soil, which is expected to aid spin bowling. The MCA Stadium's surfaces are famed for being favorable to batting initially but also assisting spin bowling. And, based on past international and IPL results, the chasing team has the upper hand on the wickets at MCA Stadium in Pune.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/placeholders/2025/12/post-100727-800x450-ind-vs-sl-2nd-t20i-weather-forecast-pitch-report-a.jpg" alt="Ind vs SL 2nd T20I: Weather forecast, pitch report, and who will win the 2nd T20I India vs Sri Lanka 2023?" class="wp-image-100732" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">MCA pitch report (MCA_Twitter)</figcaption></figure>



<p>The average first innings score in MCA is 153, and it decreases to 128 in the second innings. The pitch is generally good for batting, with some help for the spinners. We can expect a similar deck as it was in the first match at the Wankhede. If we talk about ground dimensions, the straight boundary is approx 74 meters and the square boundaries are 65 meters.</p>



<h2 id="strong-ind-vs-sl-2nd-t-20-i-who-will-win-the-2nd-t-20-i-strong"><strong>Ind vs SL 2nd T20I: Who will win the 2nd T20I?</strong></h2>



<p>Look, there is no doubt that the Indian team is looking stronger than the Sri Lankan team even on man-to-man marking. India have a decent batting depth and we saw on the 1st t20I, what they are capable of! Sri Lanka can amaze India riding on their spinners in the form of Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga. Ishan looked in great touch, so seemed Hardik and it won't be that easy for Sri Lankan bowlers to take them down every time. </p>



<p>Toss can play a major role. This venue has only hosted three international T20s, and in those three games, the chasing team has won two. It doesn't say much, but it supports the widespread perception that any target can be chased in T20Is. Hardik might wish to bat first once again, with his desire to put the club in challenging positions moving forward. So If India bat first and locked the 170+ runs target, they are going to win it, and if the visitors bat first, they would need a minimum of 180 runs to stop the Indian batting lineup which is never going to be that easy anyway.</p>

Ind vs SL 2nd T20I: Weather forecast, pitch report, and who will win the 2nd T20I India vs Sri Lanka 2023?

ind-vs-sl-2nd-t20i-weather-forecast-pitch-report-and-who-will-win-the-2nd-t20i-india-vs-sri-lanka-2023

<p><strong>IND vs SL 3rd T20:</strong> Today, the last edition of the three-match T20 international series, will pit India and Sri Lanka against one another. So far, this series has been quite thrilling. Sri Lanka recovered by winning the second T20I by 16 runs after India won the first by two runs.</p>



<p>Another exciting encounter may be anticipated in Rajkot if the first two games give any indication. It will be a do-or-die match for both teams as this is the third match of the 3-match series and both teams have won one match each. Today, in this article, we will know further about the nature of the pitch of Rajkot Stadium and everything related to the stadium.</p>



<h2>Pitch report of SCA Stadium, Rajkot</h2>



<p>The SCA stadium's first-inning average is 179, while the second-inning average is 149. The spinners have always benefited a little from Rajkot's pitch. Overall, it can be described as a hitter's paradise. Even really fast bowlers must use slower deliveries on this ground to trick the batsman. If a hard pitch is thrown this time with little assistance to the spinners, another high-scoring match can be anticipated.</p>



<h2>How important will the toss be?</h2>



<p>At this stadium, four T20 International games have already been held. The unique aspect is that the outcomes are the same whether you aim for this target or pursue it. Thus, in Rajkot, the toss is not particularly significant. The captain who wins the toss will want to bowl first since the series is on the verge of do or die and he needs to have an objective in mind.</p>

<p>The biggest update for the squad is that pace sensation Jasprit Bumrah is back. He will be a direct pick in the playing 11. Mohd Shami is also in the squad so even he is bound to get a game. As you do not call the experienced players to keep them on the bench. The last development is the comeback of Rohit Sharma post his finger injury.

IND vs SL ODI: Virat Kohli scored his 45th century against Sri Lanka, second century in a month

<p>Virat Kohli batted superbly and put together an outstanding performance of 113 runs in the opening game of the ODI series against Sri Lanka. In ODI cricket, this was his 45th century. India scored a massive 373 runs thanks to his century, winning the match by a margin of 67 runs. Virat Kohli was interviewed by Suryakumar Yadav following this game. During this, Kohli shared his experience of overcoming adversity and provided advice on how to do the same.</p>



<p>Before the conversation even began, Suryakumar Yadav wished Virat a good new year. Surya stated that Kohli had an interview during the Asia Cup and that he now gets the opportunity to question Virat. He expressed gratitude to everyone for the chance. Virat scored a century in the final game of 2022 and hit a century in his first game of 2023, according to Suryakumar. Virat then wished Suryakumar Yadav a very happy new year and expressed his admiration for all that he had accomplished this year.</p>

</div></figure>



<p>Virat stated: "Even though we have been engaged for a very long time, what you have accomplished in the past year is noteworthy. This has never happened to me before. You are developing a unique template. The crowd watches your bat. Inside, the excitement is different." In addition to being pleased with his century, Kohli also expressed delight that these events are taking place. In the previous two years, such a year has not yet begun. This time, he produced a century in the opening game of the year. He was content to bat for virtually the entire innings and contribute the extra 25?30 runs that he believed were necessary given the dampness. He scored a hundred runs with his bat in the start of the year, which also happens to be World Cup year. In this situation, he hopes to win for his country by performing the same in the Test series against Australia and the World Cup. He enjoys batting in this manner. He is accustomed to batting-like ways when he is pleased with his performance. When you play cricket for a long period, your mental condition goes through ups and downs, but maintaining your mind sharp is beneficial to him.</p>

<p>Suryakumar questioned Virat Kohli regarding his most recent two years and what he did to ensure that in 2023, he would score a century in the opening game. "When you play matches consistently, they expect you in a different way," responded Kohli in response. You will feel it more as you play more. As of right now, Surya will carry out the action. It requires commitment. It is a lot of fun as long as you have good timing and runs are scored, but when runs are not scored, a poor phase appears, and in my case, I start to become frustrated. What do people hope to achieve? I wish to play in this manner. I wish to perform this way. Cricket was not letting me play the way I needed to play, so I had to. I was a long way from my true game as a result. My expectations were outpacing my abilities. I came to the realization that I had to love myself. I must also face the fact that I am the team's worst player. I was really irritable as a result of this rejection, which was not good. The folks who were close to me did not fare well. It was unfair to Anushka and the other individuals who have consistently stood with me. After that, I began to enjoy practicing when I came back after my break for the Asia Cup. This is how I have always played cricket. My suggestion is to take two steps back if you find yourself becoming desperate for something because as you become desperate, things move farther away from you.</p>



<p>Suryakumar Yadav then instructed everyone to constantly bear this in mind. Even when anything goes wrong, keep working hard. Continue playing and have fun. After that, he hoped Virat would consistently hit hundreds of runs so he could interview Kohli.</p>



<p>Virat responded by joking that it shouldn't happen because Suryakumar is walking away from the bowlers as they desperately try to get him out. The bowlers worry that if it doesn't get out, it won't change when it hits again. Speaking with them is a delight every time. We got off to a good start, and maybe we can keep it up.</p>

<p><strong>Kuldeep Yadav, IND vs SL, 2nd ODI:</strong> The Sri Lankan batsmen were frequently hampered by Indian bowlers at Kolkata's storied Eden Gardens stadium. In the second ODI of the series, Squad India finished off the innings of the Sri Lankan team for 215 runs. Kuldeep Yadav, a spinner from China, played well. In addition to him, pacer Mohammad Siraj bowled superbly.</p>



<p>In the second one-day international of the series against Sri Lanka at the Eden Gardens stadium, Indian bowlers displayed incredible skill. Batting first, the Sri Lankan side was all out for 215 runs in 39.4 overs. Kuldeep Yadav, a mystery spinner, claimed three wickets for 51 runs in ten overs. Pacer Mohammad Siraj, who bowled 5.4 overs in addition to him, claimed 3 wickets for 30 runs. Axar Patel, an all-arounder, and young pacer Umran Malik each took one wicket.</p>

<h2>Clean bowled the centurion of the last match</h2>



<p>It was particularly noteworthy as Kuldeep Yadav, an unknown Indian spinner, victimized Sri Lankan skipper Dasun Shanaka while taking three wickets in the game. After the team's first four wickets fell, Sri Lankan skipper Shanaka entered the crease and attempted a sweep shot, which is what he does best. He made an attempt to sweep the ball away from Kuldeep's leg stump. Shanaka was caught because the Indian star's ball was unable to rotate very much. Shanaka had to make his way back to the pavilion after the ball broke his leg.</p>

<p>Kuldeep, who played domestic cricket for Uttar Pradesh, bowled beautifully in this game. He secured three crucial dismissals for 51 runs. Kuldeep led Kusal Mendis, Charith Asalanka, and captain Dasun Shanaka to the pavilion. Kuldeep's bowling was responsible for Sri Lanka's six wickets falling for only 126 runs.</p>

<p><strong>IND vs. SL Highlights:</strong> Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka elected to bat first after winning the toss in the 2nd match of the 3-match series being played at the Eden Gardens Stadium in Kolkata today. The mystery spinner returning to the team from India showed his magic and destroyed the Sri Lankan middle order. Kuldeep Yadav took three important wickets, giving away 51 runs in 10 overs. Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj also took 3 wickets, while fellow bowler Umran Malik also got 2 wickets. Sri Lanka's team was unable to bat even for the full 50 overs; Sri Lanka scored 215 runs in 39.4 overs.</p>



<p>India's chase of the target got off to a poor start. India had four wickets gone at one point, with the score at 86 runs. KL Rahul, who batted at number five, however, played a cautious inning and secured the victory for Team India. Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, and Kuldeep Yadav all helped him out during this.</p>
