India Won the toss | Ind opt to bat vs SL | Kuldeep in place of Jadeja | Sri Lanka vs India 3nd Test

Dinesh Chandimal-led Sri Lanka are on the brink of suffering a series whitewash in the third and final Test against India commencing on August 12. So far, India have come out on top in both the Tests played at Galle and Colombo and Sri Lanka by far look like a shadow of their past with no real intent to compete, let alone win a game. With injuries continuing to be a worry for the home side, the visitors have all bases covered by putting up an all-round show in the series as the hosts find themselves in a spot of bother, still struggling to find the right combination. Although a spirited second innings effort from the Lankans in the second Test match was not quite good enough to save Test match but it will keep them in good stead for the final Test match of the series.
