IND vs SL: Jasprit Bumrah Was Available For Selection But Selectors Didn't Want To Hurry Him- Reports

IND vs SL: Jasprit Bumrah Was Available For Selection But Selectors Didn’t Want To Hurry Him- Reports. BCCI has announced the squads for the both T20I & ODI Series against Sri Lanka commencing from 3rd January. The selection panel has named Hardik Pandya as the skipper for the T20I leg whereas Rohit Sharma is yet to recover from the thumb injury that he sustained during the 2nd ODI match against Bangladesh.

It won’t be wrong to say that this is the start of a new era for Indian Cricket in T20Is as it looks unlikely that the board will go back to Rohit Sharma following the 2022 T20 WC exit. Hardik Pandya had captained against New Zealand in T20Is where India won the series by 1-0.

Exciting Contest on Cards

The Men in Blue would be well aware of the fact that they cannot take Sri Lanka lightly. The Island nation had shown in Asia Cup 2022 that their team has a lot of match winners in their team. Sri Lanka had played 3 T20I match series in India in 2022 where they were completely outplayed and would be keen to prove a point.

Apart from T20I Series, the ODI Series would be quite important as the ODI Series would prove to be a stepping stone ahead of ODI World Cup 2023 in India. Skipper Dasun Shanaka should promote himself as he is someone who can hold one end and play a long and effective knock for the team.
