Big change ahead of India vs Sri Lanka T20 series
India vs Sri Lanka T20 Series: The first match of the T20 series between India and Sri Lanka will be played on 27th July. After India, the Sri Lankan team has also been announced for this series. Both the teams are currently preparing for the series. The first two out of three matches will be played back to back in just two days. That is, there are consecutive matches on 27th and 28th July. Meanwhile, the preparations of the Sri Lankan cricket team got a setback when the team’s star fast bowler was ruled out of the entire series. Not only this, the Sri Lanka Cricket Board has also announced his replacement. However, it remains to be seen how the Sri Lankan team recovers from this setback.
Dushmantha Chameera out of the entire T20 series
Team India is currently on a tour of Sri Lanka under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav. The first match of the series will start on 27th July i.e. Saturday. The team is busy preparing for it. Meanwhile, the Sri Lanka Cricket Board has informed that the team’s fast bowler Dushmantha Chameera has been injured. It has been said that he is suffering from bronchitis and respiratory infection. It will take time for him to recover completely, so he has been ruled out of the three T20 International match series against India. Along with this, it has been told that after Dushmantha Chameera was ruled out, Asitha Fernando has been included in the team in his place. The big thing is that Dushmantha Chameera is the highest wicket-taker for Sri Lanka in T20 International matches against India, so this setback is being considered even bigger.
Sri Lanka team yet to be announced for the ODI series
After the T20 International series, a three-match ODI series will also be played between India and Sri Lanka. The Indian team has been announced for both the series, but Sri Lanka has announced the team only for the T20 series. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see whether Dushmantha Chameera will be able to recover for the ODI series. The first match of the ODI series will be played on August 2. The team will be announced before that. However, since the series is in Sri Lanka itself, the board can take some time to announce the team if it wants. But still the team is expected to be revealed at the end of this month. In such a situation, when the Sri Lankan team will be announced for the ODI series, it will be very interesting to see it.
Sri Lanka squad for T20 series: Charith Asalanka, Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Perera, Avishka Fernando, Kusal Mendis, Dinesh Chandimal, Kamindu Mendis, Dasun Shanaka, Wanindu Hasaranga, Dunith Welalage, Mahesh Theekshana, Chamindu Wickramasinghe, Matheesha Pathirana, Nuwan Thushara, Binura Fernando and Asitha Fernando.
Team India for T20 series: Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Shubman Gill (vice-captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rinku Singh, Riyan Parag, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Sanju Samson (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dubey, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Khalil Ahmed, Mohammed Siraj.
