As India prepares for the second ODI against Sri Lanka, they focus on overcoming a sluggish pitch and the challenge posed by Sri Lankan slow bowlers. In the first ODI, India was on track to chase down a target of 231 but collapsed to a tie after being bowled out for 230, largely due to effective spin bowling from the Sri Lankans. Key players Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and KL Rahul struggled against the Sri Lankan spinners, with Kohli and Rahul both falling to Wanindu Hasaranga. India's strategy for the upcoming match includes better strike rotation and possibly altering the batting order to enhance their handling of spin. The Indian team aims to bat longer and more aggressively to negate the effectiveness of the Sri Lankan bowlers and secure a win.
