The defending champions will desperately look to repair the damaged reputation after the poor show in Australia recently, and men in blue would be hoping for a positive start to their campaign in the tournament.
After failing to make any impression in two successive foreign tours in England and then Australia, Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni certainly realizes the meaning of a good start that will provide the missing momentum required to succeed at any level.
On the other hand; even though Sri Lanka finished second to Australia in the best-of-three finals, Sri Lanka actually ended up with a better head-to-head record against the 4-time world champions in the competition. That fact will certainly give them a bit more confidence while they face India today.
Both teams are well matched, taking into account their previous Asia Cup encounters. Though Sri Lanka have been triumphant nine times as against eight by India, it was Dhoni's men who took the honours in the final of the 2010 edition.
As a day/night fixture; today’s match will start at 14:00 local time, 13:00 PST (08:00 GMT).
Probable squads are given below:
