Indian Team: The Indian team is to tour Sri Lanka (SL vs IND) this month, where both the teams are to play a three-match T20 and an equal number of ODI series. Earlier, Team India had recently toured Zimbabwe and won the 5-match T20 series 4-1.

Now Team India is ready to make a new beginning in the era of new head coach Gautam Gambhir and would like to defeat Sri Lanka in their home. In such a situation, India would like to go with a strong playing eleven in T20 and ODI on this tour.

The first T20 match will be held on 27 July

Let us tell you that the first T20 match between these two teams will be played on 27th July in Pallikele. In such a situation, Team India can play with its strongest playing eleven in this match.

Veteran all-rounder Hardik Pandya can be seen captaining the Indian team in this series. In such a situation, he will be seen on the field for the first time after winning the T20 World Cup 2024. He was rested from the series against Zimbabwe and is now ready to return as captain.

The first ODI match will be played in Colombo

The first ODI match between India and Sri Lanka will be played on August 2 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. If media reports are to be believed, Hardik may withdraw his name from this series and in his place wicketkeeper batsman KL Rahul can be appointed as the captain of the team.

Rahul was also not included in the T20 World Cup team and now he has been dropped from the T20 team in the thinking of the Indian team management and in such a situation, his return can be seen in the ODI series.

This could be India's playing eleven for T20 and ODI
