IND vs SL 1st ODI Match Prediction: The first ODI match of the series is going to be played at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, R.Premadasa, Colombo, Sri Lanka, on August 2, and the match is going to start at 2:30.

Team Preview of IND vs SL 1st ODI Match Prediction 2024

India will once again play under the Rohit Sharma captaincy in the ODI cricket after new T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav won the T20I series with a great performance. It is going to be a challenge for the new head coach of the Indian Cricket Team, Gautam Gambhir, too, because he only coached the team in the T20I format, and the ODI is quite different.

Sri Lanka will look to bounce back and win the bilateral series against India. The last time they won was in 1997 when Sri Lankan legend Arjuna Ranatunga led his side against the Indian team, which was under the captaincy of the god of cricket Sachin Tendulkar.

There are many players who will return to Team India, like KL Rahul, who has been out of the team since the South Africa series and did not feature in the T20I World Cup. Shivam Dube, Shreyas Iyer, Khaleel Ahmed, and Rishabh Pant are the players who made their way into the ODI squad.

The strange selection by the BCCI sees Sanju Samson being included in the T20I, where he does not have a great record but axed in the ODI, where he performed way better and also scored a century in his last ODI match vs South Africa. In place of Mohammed Siraj, Mukesh Kumar or Avesh Khan should have been given the chance to play because Siraj is the bowler who needs pitch assistance and his best day to make an impact in the match, or he goes for many runs.

R.Premadasa Stadium, Colombo pitch has been in favor of spinners and batters as for the 1st ODI match, and batters will have the upper hand, but later in the 2nd and 3rd ODI, the spinners will get more turn from the surface. The last two matches on this surface have been low-scoring, in which bowlers enjoyed bowling as the pitch gets very slow, which makes it hard for the batters to hit their shots.

Important players for the India Team in the match against Sri Lanka

1. Virat Kohli will play his first match after becoming the T20I World Champion, and he loves to play against the Sri Lanka side as he averages 63.26 in 53 ODI matches against them, hitting ten centuries and 12 half-centuries.

2. Shubman Gill will be the best grand league captaincy choice for you in our dream11 team because he has an average of 69 in 6 matches against the Sri Lanka team. He is a way better ODI player than T20I or Test.

3. Mohammed Siraj can be the pick who can win your competition because his record on the Colombo pitch is just amazing. He took six wickets against the Sri Lanka team in the last match. He has taken 19 wickets in six matches against the Sri Lanka team.

Important players for the Sri Lanka Team in the match against the India Team

1. Wanindu Hasaranga is not a successful bowler in the ODI format compared to what he did in the T20I, but still, right now, he is one of the best bowlers of the Sri Lanka team. He has taken 84 wickets in 54 ODI matches and will be crucial against India.

2. Pathum Nissanka is one of the most technical batters in the world right now. He showed his skills in the first match against India in T20I format, but he has the capability to score big in the ODI against the Indian side.

3. Maheesh Theekshana is going to play a crucial role against the Indian team like he did in the third T20I, where he took three wickets because there are few left-handers against whom he will be the main spinner for them.
