India vs Sri Lanka, 3rd T20

Rohit Sharma & Co. have won the toss and elected to bowl first at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, where the third T20 match between India and Sri Lanka is going on. Rohit Sharma-led Indian team has already sealed this series after winning 2nd T20 against Sri Lanka.

There have been two changes made in Team India. In place of Yuzvendra Chahal and Jasprit Bumrah, Washington Sundar and Mohammed Siraj got the chance. This is Washington's T-20 debut match. In the Sri Lanka team, Danushka Gunathilaka and Dasun Shanaka replaced Silva and Mathews.

KL Rahul scored half centuries in both the matches while captain Rohit played a stormy century in the last match. The weight of batting will be on the shoulders of both of them. On the other hand, team's experienced all-rounder Angelo Mathews has been out of the injury. In the second match, he did not come to bat.
