IND vs SL Toss Prediction
The team winning the toss might opt to bat first. India batted first in their previous clash against Sri Lanka where they won the game. In their last match, India failed to chase down the target batting second. Hence, they will look to bat first.
Sri Lanka also knows that chasing has been quite difficult at R. Premadasa Stadium. Hence, they would opt to bat first as well. Moreover, teams batting first have won 88 ODI games at the stadium. In comparison, teams batting second have won 62 games.
