The three-match T20I series between Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe has produced two nail-biting matches. The first one ended in Sri Lanka's favour, while the second ended in Zimbabwe's side. Angelo Mathews was the star in the first game, while he was the culprit in the second.
The third and final game will take place on January 18 at the same venue, R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo. Sri Lanka let the game slip from their grip and lost, but Zimbabe will be feeling confident after a brilliant chase. So can they do it again, or will Sri Lanka win the series?
