India play Sri Lanka at Eden Gardens tomorrow (24th) with the series 2-1 in their favor. A win will give the series to the Indians once again.
India will miss Yuvraj Singh and MS Dhoni in their batting lineup. Virat Kohli will be expected to make up for the omission while Dinesh Karthik proved to be an able contributor to the Indian team. The pace bowlers need to pick up Dilshan, Tharanga and Sangakkara early to put pressure on the middle-order.
The Sri Lankan team should bring back Sanath Jayasuriya and drop a bowler so that they can beef up their middle order even though he seems to be uncomfortable there. His spell during the 1996 World Cup at the same ground is fresh in every one's mind.
Can the spinners do it again for the Indians?
