India – Betting Favorites
India have shown that even though their main squad is in England preparing for a test series, the India A team is more than good enough to not just compete with Sri Lanka but also beat them easily.
India will once again start as T20 betting favorites against Sri Lanka. However, the T20 series is expected to be a lot more competitive than the ODI series as Sri Lanka have not become a little more accustomed to the Indian players and are better prepared to exploit their weaknesses.
The T20 format also helps reduce the differences between the two sides and the volatility of T20 cricket gives Sri Lanka a much better chance of competing and winning.
