India were left with mixed feeling on the eve of their ODI series against Sri Lanka. Stalwarts Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli returning to the side while Jasprit Bumrah will yet again miss the action. Bumrah was added to India’s squad last week but pulled out of precaution. He faced stiffness while bowling in the build-up to the series. Bumrah missed several assignments including the Asia Cup and the T20 World Cup last year.
The return of old guards Rohit, Kohli and KL Rahul and also Shreyas Iyer, though, will give the hosts a huge boost as they eye the series after clinching the T20Is against Sri Lanka.
India have a packed ODI calendar in the build-up to the World Cup in October-November. The key will be not just to get the balance right but also to manage the workload with the IPL and the Border Gavaskar Trophy as well. Selection problems follow every Indian team and the ODI team faces the most stiffest competition.

Rohit and Kohli pick themselves, while Shreyas too has all but settled himself into the side. Ishan Kishan scored a double-century, but Shubman Gill has been consistently at his best for the last 6 months. KL Rahul, Suryakumar Yadav and Shreyas are all fighting for a solitary spot.
Iyer had a dream run in ODIs last year and scored 724 runs at an average of 55.69 in 15 innings. He was the backbone of India’s batting with his ability to rotate the strike and tackle spin in the middle overs — an essential skill on sub-continent tracks.
Suryakumar Yadav’s T20 exploits have forced the management to explore his utility in the 50-over format. The middle-order batter is fresh from a 51-ball unbeaten 112 in their 91-run win over Sri Lanka in the third and final T20I at Rajkot. However, his ODI career hasn’t really taken off so far. He could however get full backing from the management to improve on his numbers in the lead-up to the World Cup.
Mohammad Shami will lead the line with Mohammed Siraj, Arshdeep Singh and Umran Malik for company, New vice-captain Hardik Pandya’s bowling skills will also come in handy. However, it remains to be seen how many overs the skipper gets out from India’s premier allrounder.

Sri Lankan skipper and star all-rounder Dasun Shanaka led by example in the T20Is, emerging as their top run-getter with 124 runs at a strike rate of 187.87. The visitors would look for more stability at the top and hope opener Pathum Nissanka gives them a solid start. Nissanka was their leading run-getter last year (491 runs from 11 matches). He would like to continue from where he had left off.
The middle order will be steered by Charith Asalanka who also had a fruitful last year, averaging 53.25. The visitors have also drafted in leg-spinner Jeffrey Vandersay, who could be handy on Indian wickets. Vandersay was their leading wicket-taker in ODIs last year, claiming 14 scalps from seven matches.
