Asia Cup 2022: India vs Sri Lanka T20 Odds And Prediction
India suffered their first loss at the 2022 Asia Cup when they lost a nail-biter against arch-rivals Pakistan. India’s next challenge will be against Sri Lanka on Sep 06 in Dubai and it’s going to be another stiff test for India as Sri Lanka are playing well.
The Lankans are coming off a win against Afghanistan who have surprised a lot of fans at the 2022 Asia Cup by how well they have played.
Sri Lanka will take confidence from their win against Afghanistan and bring that winning momentum into their game against India which should hopefully give fans another exciting T20 clash.

India vs Sri Lanka T20 Match Odds
Team | Odds On Betway |
India | 1.33 |
Sri Lanka | 3.25 |
India are the defending champions and the favorites to win the 2022 Asia Cup and hence they go in as betting favorites with odds of 1.33 on Betway. The Lankans who are looking to rebuild and get back to winning consistently are underdogs with odds of 3.25.
Our betting experts agree with these odds as we don’t think India’s loss to Pakistan has taken anything away from this Indian team as it was a nail-biter than was decided in the last over. The loss to Pakistan will light a fire under India who will look to come hard at the Sri Lankans.
We had earlier posted an India vs Hong Kong T20 betting preview as well.
2022 Asia Cup: India vs Sri Lanka T20 Match Prediction
Sri Lanka have a good team with a number of players having a lot of potential. However, none of those players are established players having the ability to win a match on their own. Sri Lanka will have to put together a strong team performance with both the batsmen and bowlers making significant contributions to threaten India.
India on the other hand are packed with a bunch of match winners. India struggled against Pakistan because their top all-rounder Hardik Pandya did not fire with his bat or ball as he did in the first game against Pakistan which India won.
India rested Hardik Pandya against Hong Kong and it looked like that move backfired as it would have been better to keep Pandya playing and in form.
Our experts believe that India has too much firepower in their batting and a lot more variety in their bowling. We are going to put our money on India to bounce back and win comfortably.
India vs Sri Lanka Top Runscorer Betting
Player | Odds On Parimatch |
Rohit Sharma | 2.50 |
Virat Kohli | 3.00 |
Suryakumar Yadav | 3.75 |
Kusal Mendis | 4.75 |
Pathum Nissanka | 5.00 |
One of the most popular side bets is to pick which batsman you think will finish with the most number of runs. While India ended up losing their last game to Pakistan, one positive is that Virat Kohli has finally found form.
Kohli scored 60 runs against Pakistan at a strike rate of 136. Kohli is once again going to be the most dangerous batsman for India along with skipper Rohit Sharma.
Sri Lanka did well against Afghanistan as their openers Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis both made runs at the top of the order and will once again be key players for Sri Lanka.
Prediction: We are going to bet on Kohli to deliver another good performance with the bat. That’s why we are backing Kohli to win the top runscorer betting market.
India vs Sri Lanka Highest Wicket-Taker Betting
Player | Odds On Parimatch |
Bhuvneshwar Kumar | 4.00 |
Hardik Pandya | 5.00 |
Yuzvendra Chahal | 5.50 |
Wanindu Hasaranga | 5.50 |
Dilshan Madushanka | 7.00 |
The bowlers for both sides are going to be under pressure from ball one. India’s pace bowlers will need to take early wickets to put Sri Lanka under pressure while the Sri Lankan spinners will need to bowl economically and pick up regular wickets.
Prediction: We are going to back Bhuvneshwar Kumar to take early wickets and end up as the highest wicket-taker. You can put your money on Bhuvi to win this bet on Parimatch.
India vs Sri Lanka T20 Likely Playing XI
We think India should make a couple of changes to their squad for the Sri Lanka game. Dinesh Karthik should be given a chance ahead of Deepak Hooda and Arshdeep Singh should be given another chance even though he has proven to be expensive.
We don’t expect Sri Lanka to make any changes to the squad that won them the game against Afghanistan.
India
KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma (C), Virat Kohli, Surya Kumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik, Ravi Bishnoi, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Avesh Khan, Yuzvendra Chahal, and Arshdeep Singh.
Sri Lanka
Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis, Charith Asalanka, Danushka Gunathilaka, Dasun Shanaka (c), Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Dilshan Madushanka, Wanindu Hasaranga de Silva, Chamika Karunaratne, Maheesh Theekshana and Asitha Fernando.
India vs sri Lanka T20: What Can We Expect?
We should expect runs from Indian captain Rohit Sharma. This hasn’t been a great tournament for the hitman so far and it’s time for him to lead from the front.
We can also expect to see Hardik Pandya shine as India’s premier all-rounder is a match-winner and will play a big role against Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka also need runs from their captain against India as it will inspire the rest of the squad to put their hands up and be counted.
Sri Lanka’s bowling will be tested in this game and it will be up to their spinners to put the brakes on the Indian batsmen and pick up quick wickets.
