PreviewIndia and Sri Lanka will meet in a three-match ODI series starting in Colombo on Sunday, July 18. With the main contingent on Test duty in England, it will be India’s chance to show the strength in their reserves under Shikhar-Dhawan. Some places in the lower-middle order and the fast bowling unit are still on hold and a good performance in Sri Lanka can elevate the position of some players. The series also provides a challenge for the home team to test some of their young talents and give tough competition to the highly skilled Indian outfit. India last toured the country in 2017 in a historic sweep (5-0) to Sri Lanka. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma were India’s stars with the bat in the series. While Kohli scored 330 runs in 5 innings at a strike rate of 111.86 with two centuries, Rohit also scored 302 runs at a strike rate of 97.1, including two centuries. Jasprit Bumrah set a new record for any series in Sri Lanka with 15 wickets at 11.26 at an impressive economy rate of 3.9.

India have dominated Sri Lanka all over the world over the past decade and they have a 16-4 face-off against their neighbors in the last 20 ODIs. Since January 1, 2011, India have defeated the hosts in 9 out of 10 ODIs played against them in Sri Lanka which is a staggering record. India’s second-row XI will go on to win the three-match series against Sri Lanka as the favorites – that’s the talent available across all formats in the Indian pool. Shikhar Dhawan and Prithvi Shaw are a formidable opening combination, as they displayed for Delhi Capitals in IPL 2021. While the left-hander is one of the all-time greats in the format, this series provides a great opportunity for Shaw to cement a spot. As a reserve ODI opener for India. He was in disastrous form in the 2021 Vijay Hazare Trophy and IPL and will be desperate to prove his skills at the highest level for India. Ishan Kishan could be India’s first-choice keeper for the series and should be placed at number three. He was in indifferent form in IPL 2021 and this series will give him a good chance to roar back into top gear for the country. Suryakumar Yadav is the number 4 watcher – a position that is ready to hold and the right-hander has all the elements to enrich and own the slot for India.

Manish Pandey may get the last chance to prove his worth at No.5 while Hardik Pandya will get a chance at No.6. The series will be crucial for the all-rounder and the focus will be on his bowling and his destructive hitting. Bat. Brother Krunal Pandya can come at number seven while Deepak Chahar, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Chetan Sakaria and Rahul Chahar should have four bowlers in the XI. It will be interesting to see Kumar and Chahar sharing the white new ball for India as both are big pieces of swing. Kumar has seen a dramatic change in his wicket-taking skills since 2019 and has the best bowling average among all fast bowlers in this time-frame. Form wise, it would be surprising if India decides to play the wrist-spinning pair of Yuzvendra Chahal or Kuldeep Yadav, at least in the first match of the series.

Possible Playing XI: 1. Shikhar Dhawan, 2. Prithvi Shaw, 3. Ishan Kishan, 4. Suryakumar Yadav, 5. Manish Pandey, 6. Hardik Pandya, 7. Krunal Pandya, 8. Deepak Chahar, 9. Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 10 . Rahul Chahar, 11. Chetan Sakariya
