Sri Lankan Cricket Team is all set to play the 3rd ODI on Sunday (15th January). For India, this is a dead rubber having already sealed the ODI series quite convincingly. Many Cricket experts raised their voices when Ishan Kishan & Suryakumar Yadav were ignored in the playing 11 after having a terrific T20I Series.

Sri Lanka had shown promise in the 2nd ODI, but the lack of runs hurt them. They need someone who could play long & effective innings rather than just getting a start. The island nation perhaps should open with Kusal Mendis, as the right-handed batter has got a wide range of shots.
