Shikhar Dhawan is the first player on this list. Currently, Dhawan is a regular member of the team in ODIs. However, he gave a poor performance in the recent ODI series against Bangladesh. Ishan Kishan recently slammed a double century in an ODI match against Bangladesh and proved his strength to open in ODIs.

Shubman Gill is another player who has been promising as an opener in ODIs. If Dhawan fails to perform against Sri Lanka as well, he might be snubbed from the ODI team in the future.

Axar Patel is another player who might be discarded from the ODI setup if he fails in the IND vs SL ODI series. Patel slammed a match-winning 64-run knock against West Indies last year. However, he failed to come up with such performances again.

The left-arm spinner might get a chance in the IND vs SL ODI series. However, if he fails to perform well against Sri Lanka in ODIs, selectors might not pick him in future ODI games. They might restrict him to Tests and T20Is only.

Washington Sundar is another player on this list. After spending a lot of time out of the field during the last two years, Sundar made a comeback to the national team this year. He has played a few ODI and T20Is for the team. However, he has not managed to impress with consistent performances.

Earlier, Sundar used to get chances mostly in Tests and T20Is. However this year, he got chances in ODIs as well. There are some emerging spinners in the ODIs and if Sundar fails to perform against Sri Lanka, he might be dropped from the ODI team.
