2nd T20I: Harmanpreet Opts To Bowl As Sneh Rana Comes In For Sick Deepti Sharma
Dr YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA: India captain Harmanpreet Kaur won the toss and elected to bowl first against Sri Lanka in the second T20I of the five-match bilateral series at the Dr YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam, on Tuesday.
India made one change to the playing XI from the first match, with Sneh Rana coming for the World No. 1-ranked ODI bowler in ICC Rankings, Deepti Sharma, who is unwell and has a fever. Sri Lanka have opted to go in with the same playing XI that did duty in the first match of the series.
Although she has won the toss for the second consecutive game, Harmanpreet Kaur said it was a new experience for her, as she is not accustomed to winning the toss, but is enjoying it. "Deepti is not well, Sneh Rana returns. We played well, nothing changes, same approach," said the Indian skipper.
