World Cup 2019, India vs Sri Lanka: Team India set to run into islanders

The Hindu  

The Long Room at Headingley lives up to its prefix but what strikes the eye are the wooden boards mounted on the walls. But for the Men in Blue, besides drawing some inspiration from history, it is time to sternly look ahead as Saturday’s game involving Sri Lanka looms into view. But that possibility could change if India plays to form and defeats Sri Lanka while Australia suffers a blip and succumbs to South Africa. An encore against India would help the Sri Lankans leave with bigger smiles when they exit London’s Heathrow Airport. Sri Lanka: Dimuth Karunaratne, Avishka Fernando, Suranga Lakmal, Lasith Malinga, Angelo Mathews, Jeevan Mendis, Kusal Mendis, Kusal Perera, Thisara Perera, Kasun Rajitha, Dhananjaya de Silva, Milinda Siriwardana, Lahiru Thirimanne, Isuru Udana and Jeffrey Vandersay.
