== Background ==
Prior to this match India and Sri Lanka played 5 times against each other in [[Twenty20 International|Twenty20s]], where Sri Lanka won 3 times and India won 2 times.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://stats.espncricinfo.com/sri-lanka-v-india-2012/engine/records/team/match_results.html?class=3;id=6;id=8;type=headtohead|title= India v Sri Lanka / Records / Twenty20 Internationals / Match results

==Road to the final==
{{main article|2014 ICC World Twenty20}}

=== India ===
India directly qualified for the super 10s. They started their tournament strongly. They won their first match against Pakistan very easily. They beat West Indies, Bangladesh and Australia easily to be the topper of [[2014 ICC World Twenty20#Group 1|Group 1]] with a 100% win rate. In the semi final they faced South Africa. A 72 not out innings from [[Virat Kohli]] helped India to qualify for the final.

=== Sri Lanka ===
Sri Lanka was one of the favorite of this tournament. They were the champions of [[2014 ICC World Twenty20#Group 2|Group 2]] with wins against Netherlands, South Africa and New Zealand. But they lost to England. Their win against Netherlands was the biggest victory in terms of balls remaining in all T20I.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sports.ndtv.com/cricket/news/222327-icc-world-twenty20-stats-when-sri-lanka-claimed-the-fastest-win-in-t20-internationals|title=ICC World Twenty20 stats: When Sri Lanka claimed the fastest win in T20 internationals|publisher=NDTV|access-date=2015-11-25|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151125230501/http://sports.ndtv.com/cricket/news/222327-icc-world-twenty20-stats-when-sri-lanka-claimed-the-fastest-win-in-t20-internationals|archive-date=2015-11-25|url-status=dead}}</ref> Also they bowled out Netherlands for only 39 runs which is the lowest score in all T20I.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://zeenews.india.com/sports/cricket/icc-t20-world-cup-2014/icc-world-t20-netherlands-bowled-out-for-lowest-score-in-t20i-history_783095.html|title=ICC World T20: Netherlands bowled out for lowest score in T20I history|publisher= Zee News| accessdate = March 24, 2014}}</ref> In the semifinal Sri Lanka met defending champion West Indies. Sri Lanka won by 27 runs ([[Duckworth–Lewis method|D/L method]]) in that rain interrupted game.

== Team Composition ==
India team was unchanged from their semi final line up. The team didn't want to change their winning combination so they didn't change their line up for the final.

But there was a change in the Sri Lankan line up. [[Thissara Perera]] replaced [[Seekkuge Prasanna]] in the Sri Lankan line up for the final.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cricwaves.com/mobile/loadArtD?aid=dhIVjiGTZp_drh-sevawcirc|title=Sri Lanka tame India to win ICC T20 World Cup 2014}}</ref>
