India vs Sri Lanka Live Score, 2nd T20I in Dharamsala: Spin from both ends now as Ravindra Jadeja replaces Harshal Patel. Nissanka collects a brace off the second delivery, before collecting a boundary two balls later — the result of a thick top-edge while attempting a reverse scoop. Sharp fielding by Hooda at deep extra cover in the last ball to restrict Gunathilaka to a brace. Nine from Jadeja’s first over.

Preview: India will look to wrap the three-match T20I series on Saturday with a win over Sri Lanka in the second match at Dharamshala. The Rohit Sharma-led side won the first match by 62 runs.

India have been on a 10-match winning streak and a victory on Saturday will complete a second T20I series win for the side in as many weeks. It has been a terrific turnaround for Men in Blue who failed to dazzle at the 2021 T20 World Cup just a few months ago, making an early exit from the mega event.

Since then India's focus has been on plugging the glaring holes in the side and the recent results have been proof that the team is moving in the right direction. Suryakumar Yadav and Venkatesh Iyer excelled in their middle-order batter roles during the West Indies T20I series. Ravi Bishnoi made an impressive foray into international cricket besides players like Harshal Patel and Deepak Chahar impressing with their pace bowling.

The Sri Lanka series is also another opportunity for India to improve their squad before the 2022 T20 World Cup. In the first T20I, Ishan Kishan scored a quick-fire 89 off 56 after having a subdued performance against West Indies and that's great news for Team India. They will hope for another cracking performance from the opener.

Shreyas Iyer scored 57 not out from No 3 in first T20I and that innings has strengthened his case. All-rounder Deepak Hooda didn't get to bat in the first match and returned with figures of 0/24 from his three overs. He will look to better his performance in the second match as he aims to become an India regular. Sanju Samson didn't get a chance to bat in the first match and he will hope for some time in the middle with the bat as India look to finalise their core for the upcoming World Cup.

Sri Lanka on the other hand will have to play their best to stop India's winning steak. They have not been at their best in the absence of frontline spinners Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga.
