India will cross blades with Sri Lanka one final time in the 3rd T20I game at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele on Tuesday, July 30.
Captain Suryakumar Yadav has done a commendable job as India has already clinched the series victory following their 2-0 lead. But as they say, the job is not done until the very last game; India would hope to steal the one remaining victory too from Sri Lanka's hand in the much-awaited clash.
Moreover, if reports are to be believed, then Shubman Gill is likely to miss the third clash due to a neck spasm that kept him out during the second clash.
On the other hand, Sri Lanka would only one hope in mind that is avoid a clean sweep in their own backyard.
While the two prepare to face one another, let's take a look at the ground stats of this venue
