Ind vs SL Live: India aim to continue unbeaten run – Rohit Sharma has begun his full-time captaincy duty winning all six T20 matches so far. Against Sri Lanka at home, he will be aiming to continue the dominant run even though the hosts will be without several stars when they face Dashun Sanaka & Co in the 1st match at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow on Thursday. However, eyes will be on performances of Venkatesh Iyer and Ravi Bishnoi. Follow IND VS SL 1ST T20 updates on Insidesport.IN
The likes of Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant and Shardul Thakur have been rested for the series while Deepak Chahar and Suryakumar Yadav have been ruled out with injuries. Against Sri Lanka, it will give India a chance to test the likes of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shreyas Iyer to show what they are capable of. The duo failed in the third T20I against West Indies, but they would hope that they impress against Sri Lanka.

Sanju Samson has also been drafted into the squad and it would be interesting to see whether the management gives him a go in the playing XI. Spinner Ravi Bishnoi also impressed in his maiden T20I series and he will look to march ahead with the momentum.
Jasprit Bumrah is also back for the series against Sri Lanka and the bowling attack will get strengthened further. Bhuvneshwar Kumar showed what he is capable of in the series against Windies and that emerged as a big positive.
However, the highlight over the last week has been Venkatesh Iyer. The way he has managed to finish off matches for India has been a big sign and if he manages to improve his bowling, the management can have a world-class all-rounder.

Talking about Sri Lanka, the side suffered a 1-4 defeat at the hands of Australia and the side was let down by batting time and again. Skipper Dasun Shanaka would hope that the batting side gets the act together and is able to give a fight to Team India.
💬 💬 “I’m excited to be back and raring to go.”
