It will be one humdinger of a clash in Colombo after Sri Lanka clinched a thriller to win the second T20I by four wickets. The series decider is now between a young Indian unit and a buoyed Sri Lankan team.
In what comes as a piece of good news, the rain gods will stay away as we gear up for a full game.
After India fielded four debutants in their playing XI on Wednesday (July 28) and posted a modest 132 for 5 in their 20 overs, the hosts scampered home with two balls to spare and had Dhananjaya de Silva's 34-ball 40 to thank for the series-leveling win.
A series win over India will surely boost Sri Lanka's spirits ahead of the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup.
Colombo weather on Thursday (July 29): Mostly cloudy
It's high humidity and cloudy weather on Thursday. If you want the numbers, the temperature is estimated to be around 28 degrees Celsius throughout the evening and the humidity is expected to be about 74%. In comparison, the humidity during the second T20I was 81%.
That said, another full game and a cracker of a contest is on the cards at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.
