SL VS IND: Team News and Form Guide:
Sri Lanka:
Sri Lanka will probably rethink Udana’s presence in the team. Lahiru Kumara or Kasun Rajitha are likeliest to replace him. Although the lions were off to a good start they couldn’t carry on with the flow and lost way too many wickets in the middle overs. Dushmantha Chameera didn’t get any wickets on Sunday, and yet, made several India batters uncomfortable with his pace. While Kishan was walloping everyone else, Chameera was the one bowler who seriously gave him a hard time.

India:
Bhuvneshwar Kumar had been slightly off, particularly at the death on Sunday. As a result, India may bring in Navdeep Saini in the first xi. Moreover, Rahul Dravid had already mentioned earlier that everybody will get a game so rotations in the team will be very common. Shaw and Kishan produced a brilliant performance last day and are expected to retain their spot in the xi. However, Paddikal and Gaikwad will be surely waiting for their opportunity to open the innings.
