Team India records in Mohali
Talk about Team India's record in Mohali, where they played in one-day matches played in 9 matches. Last year Team India beat New Zealand by 7 wickets at the PCA stadium.
Dhoni will become 10th hujari
Team India's former captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who removed Team India from an embarrassing position in the last match, is just 109 runs away from making 10,000 runs in ODI cricket. Dhoni has so far scored 9891 runs at an average of 51.79 in 310 ODIs so far. Which includes 10 centuries and 67 half-centuries. If Dhoni achieves this achievement, then he will become the fourth Indian batsman to score 10,000 runs in ODI cricket. So far, India's Sachin, Dravid and Ganguly have done this feat.
Sri Lanka records in India
If we talk about Sri Lanka's record on the Indian soil, then the team won the last match played here at Dharamsala after 8 years. Sri Lanka have not won any ODI series so far in India. There has been a total of 17 bilateral series in ODI history between the two countries.
Of which India has 12, Sri Lanka has won only two series. Three series are drawing. The team won the last ODI series against India 20 years ago in 1997. Then he won the series 3-0
Team India
Indian batsmen bowed to Sri Lankan attack completely in Dharamsala. The hosts lost seven wickets on 29 runs. His 50 was also difficult to touch, but former Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni had saved the game by 65 runs and saved the game from a very embarrassing situation and crossed the 100 mark.
Mohali's atmosphere may not be cold like Dharamshala, but it can help fast bowlers on this wicket. In this case, Sri Lankan bowlers who come with full confidence in this match can again trouble Indian batsmen on this wicket.
In this way, Indian batsmen need to take precautionary measures in this match and learn from the mistakes made in the last match. All of his batsmen will have to show their own temperament once again that they showed against New Zealand and Australia.
Virat Kohli is not in this series, so the decision to keep Ajinkya Rahane out of the playing XI in the last match raises questions on the team management strategy. Captain Rohit, Shikhar Dhawan and Dinesh Karthik also failed because the bat of young batsmen like Shreyas Iyer, Manish Pandey, Hardik Pandya, who debuted in the previous match was also silent.
Though India did not have much chance in the previous match to showcase their performances in the bowling department, Jaspreet Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Pandya had taken one wicket each. Kuldeep Yadav and Yuswendra Chahal did not get the chance to bowl.
Sri Lanka
Sri Lankan team will be on seventh in the last match with their performance; Angelo Mathews, Upul Tharanga, who had batted well in the previous match, In the bowling, Suranga Lakmal broke the backbone of Indian batting by taking four wickets. The spin duo of Akila Dhananjay and Sachitha Pathirana also gave good support to fast bowlers.

Sri Lanka proved to be a good match for Sri Lanka, while Angelo Mathews also made a great comeback. Fast bowler Nuwan Pradeep also proved effective.
