India vs Sri Lanka 2017: India's probable playing 11 for the third ODI

Lower middle order

Both Pandya and Jadhav failed to score in the last match

Jadhav was promoted from number seven to number four in the last match, but could not make the opportunity count. Pandya too was unable to create an impact in India's topsy-turvy chase in the same match.

Both the right-handers have managed to chip in with the ball in the series, but have not got enough opportunities with the bat. They will look to land a few in the stands at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Kandy tomorrow.

Jadhav will come in to bat after MS Dhoni (provided he comes in at five), while Pandya will come in at number seven.

Pandya has been shaping up to become a genuine finisher for India and skipper Kohli will look to keep him grooming him in the same spot.
