Later today, Sri Lanka will take on India at Colombo in what will be the first ever Twenty20 International Match in Sri Lanka. India will have the edge after their stupendous performance in the one-day series. Besides the Indian team is packed with players who are perfect for this slam-bang variety of cricket. Yusuf Pathan can be devastating for a couple of overs – and in a 20 overs match, that can sometimes make all the difference.
But that is exactly the reason why it will be difficult to predict an outcome of the match. T20 matches, as we saw during the T20 world cup and the IPL, can turn on their heads in as little as two overs. Sometime even one. A few lusty blows from the blades of Jayasurya or just about anyone else can tilt the match decisively, and from an average looking score of 125/5 in 14 overs a team can often reach a much healthier looking 150/5 in 16 overs! That’s the beauty of the format – a match is rarely ever dead. Therefore India will have a very slender edge, if any. So don’t miss watching the game live – should be great fun.
