The 'Men in Blue' coming into this series high on confidence on the back of T20I series victories at home against Bangladesh and Sri Lanka respectively. The stadium at Guwahati has been turned into a fortress amidst the Northeast engulfed with widespread protest against the Citizens Amendment Act.
Sri Lanka on the other hand would look to put an end to their dismal record against the Indians, which includes five straight losses in T20Is against the hosts.
The return of Jasprit Bumrah and Angelo Matthews would bolster the strengths of the respective squads, as both teams look to fix their best playing eleven for the World T2O slated to be held in Australia later this year
