18:20 IST: Hello and welcome to the third and nal T20I of the series. India would look for a series
whitewash. Sri Lanka on the other hand would be looking to end the year on a high with a consolation win.

Stand-in skipper Rohit Sharma, who equalled David Miller's record of the fastest ever T20I century during his
43-ball 118-run innings in Indore, is in top form and would love to continue his good run at his home ground.
Be it KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Manish Pandey or the experienced campaigner Mahendra Singh Dhoni -- all have
chipped in when needed and coach Ravi Shastri would expect them to re big time on Sunday.
