However, the middle order failed to capitalize, and they were dismissed one after another. From 118-3, India were bowled out for 225 without playing their full quota of overs.Many blamed the team management for tinkering too much with the line-up as Team India handed as many as five debuts and made six changes from the last game. However, in the post-match presentation, Shikhar Dhawan defended his team's selection and stated he is glad the players made their debuts despite their loss in the final ODI. The Indian skipper said:&quot;I am glad the players made their debut because everyone was in quarantine for such a long time, and we had this chance because we sealed the series in the last game. It didn’t go our way. We tried some new players. We got a good start, but again we lost too many wickets in the middle overs. We were 50 runs short in the end.&quot;India and Sri Lanka will now resume their rivalry when they take on each other in a three-match T20I series starting on July 25.
