As India look to wrap up the five-match One-Day series in Sri Lanka with a 2-1 lead, the rain has delayed the start of the day-night second last cricket one-dayer at the R Premadasa stadium.
On Tuesday afternoon, just before the start of play, it started raining though play may start soon as per match officials. The covers were still on.

Ya! Mr.Manav is rite. These less changes given to the younsters may not be enough to prove their potentials & what they are capable of! They must be given more chances inorder to develop themself physically & mentally strong. They should gain more experience as the Indian team fully rely on the young-guns for it's future & also for the next world cup...
