The Indian team for the series against Sri Lanka is going to be announced soon. The Indian team will play 3 T20 and the same number of ODI matches on this tour. Gautam Gambhir will also take over as the head coach from this series. Many surprising decisions can be seen in the teams selected for this tour. Meanwhile, a big news related to Team India's squad has come out. For this tour, a player who could not make an impact in the first international cricket match of his career can get a chance in the team.
Senior players are set to return to the team for the Sri Lanka tour. At the same time, news has come out that the selection committee can also give a chance to new faces on this tour for the future. In which the name of middle order batsman Riyan Parag is at the forefront. According to media reports, Riyan Parag can be included in the squad for the T20 as well as ODI series for this tour. Let us tell you, Riyan Parag also bowls, so he is becoming a good choice for the selectors.
Riyan Parag was earlier selected by the BCCI selection committee for the Zimbabwe series. This was the first series for 24-year-old Riyan Parag for Team India. But in the first match of this series, i.e. his debut match, he was out after scoring just 2 runs in 3 balls. After this, he did not get a chance to play and had to sit out of the playing 11. Then he returned in the last match of the series. In this match, he could score only 22 runs in 24 balls and lost his wicket. But now news is coming that BCCI is ready to give him a chance once again.
If Riyan Parag gets a place as a middle order batsman, he will replace Suryakumar Yadav. This means that Suryakumar will not be a part of the ODI team. At the same time, according to reports, opening batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal will also be selected only in the T20 team.
