Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

India Legends will lock horns with Sri Lanka Legends in the third match of the ongoing Road Safety World Series. DY Patil Sports Academy will make its debut as the venue for the competition on Tuesday after the first two matches were played at the Wankhede stadium. Both the teams won their opening games.

It is likely to bring back the memories of 2011 World Cup final. As many as eight players – Muttiah Muralitharan, Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Zaheer Khan, Chamara Kapugedera, Tillakaratne Dilshan, Yuvraj Singh and Munaf Patel – are featuring in this match. No wonder both teams will give their best to win this game as the fans continue to enjoy the extravaganza.

Weather Report

The weather in Mumbai continues to say perfect for a game of cricket. There is no chance of rain coming down at any stage while the temperature will hover around 25 Degrees Celsius during the match according to AccuWeather. Dew is also expected to play its part, especially in the second innings.

Pitch Report

This is the first match of the tournament at the venue. To start with, a flat track should be on offer while the team winning the toss should look to field first with the dew likely to play an important part later in the game.
