India won the only Twenty-20 international played between the two countries early this year and are considered favourites to win today.
But much will depend on how their opener Virender Sehwag performs in the most exciting version of the game while the Sri Lankans will be hoping that the explosive opening pair of Jayasuriya and Dilshan come good.
The team winning the toss is likely to bat first.
The Sri Lankan camp is said to be concerned with the fitness of veteran spinner Muttiah Muralidaran who is nursing an injured finger which does not weigh in well for the tourists.
