After playing three T20Is in West India, India and Sri Lanka will be playing a couple of ODIs in East India starting with the first ODI in Guwahati tomorrow. Although there’s always an impression of these two teams playing a lot of bilateral cricket against each other, the match will be the first India-Sri Lanka ODI in India in the last five years.

A three-match ODI series will be the 20th bilateral series in this format between these two neighbouring countries. India, who have a fantastic head-to-head ODI record against Sri Lanka, have won 14 and lost only two series over the years. It is worth a mention that Sri Lanka haven’t won a bilateral ODI series against India in the last two and a half decades.

India’s dominating spree further gets a shot in the arm at home as they’ve won nine and drawn one out of their 10 bilateral ODI series against Sri Lanka in their own backyard. Readers must note that Sri Lanka have never been able to register a bilateral series victory in India.
