Live Cricket Score IND vs SL: India will look to adjust their tactics as they prepare for the second ODI against Sri Lanka today, focusing on countering a sluggish pitch and a formidable array of Sri Lankan slow bowlers.
In the first ODI on Friday, chasing a target of 231, India appeared to be cruising at 130 for three before a collapse against Sri Lanka’s spinners saw them bowled out for 230, resulting in a tie. The Lankan bowlers, particularly their spinners, exploited the conditions expertly, causing significant trouble for the Indian batters.
Rohit Sharma provided a strong start, but once he was dismissed, Sri Lanka’s bowlers executed their plans with precision against India’s top and middle-order batsmen, including Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, and Shreyas Iyer. The Indian trio struggled to accelerate against the disciplined Lankan spinners.
