All eyes will be on Indian bowlers on the third day

Now the third day has become very important in this match. The Sri Lankan team will now come out to bat on the third day. Now the spinners are getting more help from the pitch also. In such a situation, more responsibility is going to be on Kuldeep Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja and Manav Suthar. However, the Indian team management would like Kuldeep Yadav and Prasidh Krishna to play as many balls as possible at the beginning of the third day. That will cause more trouble for the Sri Lankan team. Fans also have big expectations from Mohammad Siraj.
