Predicting Sri Lanka’s playing XI for 3rd T20I against West Indies

Check out the possible Sri Lanka’s playing XI for the 3rd T20I against West Indies. The last game of the T20I series between Sri Lanka and West Indies is the decider as the series is 1-1. West Indies won the first game while Sri Lanka dominated in the second. It was a brilliant performance by the Sri Lankan bowlers as they dismantled the batting attack and bowled them out on just 82 runs. 

Now, the last game will decide who will take the trophy home. The Sri Lankan side have improved their game a lot and have beaten the West Indies which speaks a lot about their performance. 

Here’s the predicted Sri Lanka’s playing XI:

Top Order

Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendia and Kusal Perera form the top order of Sri Lanka. Nissanka has turned out to be a blessing for the team who gives the desired start a team requires. He is accompanied by Mendis who is another great player. Both of them wreak havoc on the opponents. They are the reason behind the team’s good performance in the recent games. 

Middle Order

In the middle order Charith Asalanka, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Wanindu Hasaranga and Kamindu Mendis are the players who handle the team. They take the score forward with their terrific batting. Skipper Asalanka is a brilliant player who knows how to hit the ball out of the park. He is a class player and has done brilliant captaincy as well. The other players have done considerably well in most of the games. They have to play well in the last game to win the match. 

Bowlers

Dunith Wellalage, Maheesh Theekshana, Mathisha Pathirana, and N Thushara are the best bowlers. They bowled out West Indies for 82 runs which was a brilliant performance. The same heroics will be needed in the upcoming match to clinch the series.
