2 This is only the second time that India reached the knockouts at the World Twenty20. India won the inaugural edition in 2007 but failed to get past the league stage in the remaining three tournaments despite the players' experience in the cash-rich and high-profile Indian Premier league that sees top players from around the world in action.
3 India is in line to hold all three ICC titles at the same time under captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni. India won the 2011 World Cup at home and the 2013 Champions Trophy in England
4 Sri lanka will seek an end to an inexplicable losing streak in title matches. They have lost twice in World Cup finals in 2007 and 2011 as well as World Twenty20 finals in 2009 and 2012
3 India have won three and lost two in five previous Twenty20 matches played against Sri lanka. Sri lanka have a perfect record against India in World Twenty20. They beat India by five wickets in the only match played at Gros Islet on May 11,2010
