India vs Sri Lanka 3rd ODI: Sri Lanka, after managing to draw the first ODI of the 3-match series, won the next emphatically to lead the series 1-0 against India. Now, the host will also be eyeing a win in the third to defeat India in an international ODI series after nearly 27 years. Rohit Sharma and Co., while chasing the target of 241 runs in the 2nd ODI, got the start they needed, but it was Sri Lankan spinner Jeffrey Vandersay’s brilliant bowling spell that demolished India. Sri Lanka finished on top by winning the match by 32 runs, and the host team has the golden opportunity to win an ODI series against India. Definitely, the ODI series didn’t get the way Gautam Gambhir wanted it to, but the “Men in Blue” can do the damage control by avoiding a series defeat today when the two clash at R. Premdasa Stadium, Colombo.
