Indian team will play against Sri Lanka in third ODI match of the tri-series at Colombo tomorrow. Sri Lankan team had won the first match against New Zealand and Indian team is expected to get tough challenge from them.

Sachin Tendulkar and Dinesh Kartik will open inning in match against Sri Lanka as Gautam Gambhir was ruled out from the tri-series due to injury. Gambhir will be out of the action for at least next 9 days.

The pitches in Sri Lanka are slow in nature and they will assist spinners especially in the second inning. Indian team will have to watch out for the spinning maestro M Muralitharan and mystery spinner A Mendis
