Australia vs Sri Lanka 2022 T20 Series Live Telecast Channel & Streaming Details in India

Australia and Sri Lanka are set to square off in a five-match T20I series which serves as a precursor to the T20 World Cup later this year. There’s plenty to look forward to, in terms of the different players, venues, and the general ambience that has been assembled for this exciting affair. In this article, we will preview the series and provide information about Australia vs Sri Lanka live telecast and streaming details in India. 

Australia take the field with uncertainty around their management

Hosts Australia arrive into this series with quite a bit of unrest going on in the background. Their former head coach Justin Langer submitted his resignation from the post last week, and from the looks of it, everyone in the Australian fraternity is pretty divided over the processes that went on behind his exit.

Having said that, the men-in-black and gold still have a pretty formidable lineup of players available to themselves. David Warner and Mitch Marsh are the only two marquee names absent from the side, which could see the likes of Josh Inglis, Ben McDermott, and Moises Henriques get some time out in the middle.

Most, if not all of their batters, head into the series on the back of sublime performances in the Ashes and/or the BBL. The bowling unit also looks quite well-oiled and has a mix of quality young players like Jhye Richardson and Daniel Sams thrown in for good measure. As is characteristic of the Aussies, expect them to come hard and fast at their opponents. 

Sri Lanka banking on LPL performers to come good

It has been a while since Sri Lanka last featured in the shortest format of the game at an international level; more specifically, their last T20I match dates back to last November’s group stage WT20 clash against the West Indies. Since then, the Lankan Lions have made quite a few tweaks into their lineup.

One of the most exciting developments for their fans will be the return of stars Danushka Gunathilaka and Kusal Mendis into the squad. Both walk back into the team at the back of some stellar performances in the Lanka Premier League 2021.

In fact, the LPL serves as the primary benchmark for selection for this assignment; and features several entertaining rookies like Nuwan Thushara, Ramesh Mendis, and Kamil Mishara. Combined with the promise of these newbie names, the pedigree of stars like Wanindu Hasaranga, Charith Asalanka, and Maheesh Theekshana- among several other names- makes for a very interesting group of players.
