India and Sri Lanka are set to meet in the second twenty20 match on 12th February 2016 at JSCA International Cricket Stadium in Ranchi. The live cricket match telecast and online streaming has been scheduled to kick off at 19:30 local time and 14:00 GMT on various broadcasting networks.
Preview
It was such a wake call for Indian cricket team in the first t20 match whereas it was a morale boosting win for visitors that they can beat hosts without big players like Malinga, Mathews and Dilshan. India was all out on 101 and top order was totally collapsed. No Indian batsman was looking to spend time on the green pitch. Most of them played wrong shoots to get dismissed.
Indian batsmen won’t be looking to do it again what they did in the first game. Once again Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Ajinkya Rahane, Yuvraj Singh and Suresh Raina will be the key players for hosts. It’s a home ground match for Mahendra Singh Dhoni, so we can expect some good innings from him as well if gets chance.
Sri Lankan team will be happy to have Tillakaratne Dilshan back in the side. At the top he’ll be key player for visitors along with captain Chandimal. Kasun Rajitha, Senanayake and Vandersay will be the vital bowlers for Lankan team. If SL wins this match they’ll seal series and also get on the top of ICC T20 rankings.
