    Asia Cup (Super Four), India vs Sri Lanka: Preview

    What's the story

    After a close defeat to Pakistan, India will look to get back their mojo in the Super Four clash against Sri Lanka in Asia Cup 2022 on Tuesday.

    Virat Kohli looked his vintage self with a sublime 60.

    Meanwhile, SL have a competent attack that could pull an upset.

    Ace leg-spinner Wanindu Hasaranga needs to be handled with care.

    Here is the preview.

    Details

    Pitch report, timing, and TV listing

    The Dubai International Cricket Stadium will host this affair.

    It has been a good batting track and thus, teams should look to score anything around 160-170.

    Both pacers and spinners could be influential.

    Chasing sides have won six of the last seven T20Is.

    The match can be watched live on Star Sports Network (7:30 PM IST) and live-streamed on the Hotstar app.

    Information

    Here's the head-to-head record (T20Is)

    India have mustered a 17-7 win-loss record against the Lankans in the format (NR: 1). The tally includes a 3-0 win at home earlier this year. Notably, India beat SL by five wickets in the 2016 Asia Cup, riding on Kohli's 56*.

    IND vs SL

    Sri Lanka have a hard task at hand

    Kusal Mendis, who slammed a 60 lately, will be backed to tonk early.

    Danushka Gunathilaka and Dasun Shanaka are able batters too.

    Hasaranga, who claims wickets for fun, will be a menace in middle-overs.

    For India, Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul played to their potential.

    Kohli seems to be getting back his rhythm.

    Pacers Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Arshdeep Singh need to strike early.
