India and Sri Lanka impossible to separate

India and Sri Lanka are evenly matched at 5/6 to win the first match in the seven match one-day series which begins at Nagpur on Tuesday, according to the latest odds from bet365.

Returning from his lay-off, Sachin Tendulkar is 13/2 favourite to be Man of the Match. Virender Sehwag is 8/1, and Sanath Jayasuriya to favourite Sri Lankan at 9/1.

The side batting first has had a slight advantage (54.5%) in matches at the venue. However, the recent ICC rule changes which favour the side batting second could be thought to cancel out this advantage.
