5 reasons why Sri Lanka will be stronger in the T20I against India

#1 Sri Lanka can carry the positive momentum from their previous T20Is

If there is some positivity in Sri Lankan cricket of late, it’s their T20 performances. As a T20 team, they have managed to beat England and South Africa on their home soil.

When the chips are down, when the fans are doubting you and not supporting you as they used to, and general perception of the cricket in the country isn’t that good, it’s such things that can motivate a team.

They need to put the results of the ODIs against Zimbabwe and India behind them and take the positive momentum they have attained in T20s into this fixture.

Probably a new captain or someone who hasn’t featured in their recent defeats would have helped lead them with a less cluttered mind but nevertheless, this team should go in with a positive frame of mind and the seniors in the team must be upbeat and motivate the youngsters to play well.

Lot has been said about the recent performances of the Sri Lankan team, but if they stand any chance in bringing back some lost pride and more importantly get back the lost support, it is by beating India in a format they have managed to do well in recently.
