Gautam Gambhir, who has been appointed the head coach of Team India, may keep Royal Challengers Bangalore's former captain Virat Kohli's favorite player and Team India's fast bowler Mohammad Siraj on the bench during the entire series. Mohammad Siraj, who played for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL, has been given a place in Team India's ODI and T20 squad on the Sri Lanka tour. However, this team includes players like Khalil Ahmed, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh. In such a situation, it is difficult for Siraj to get a chance.

Virat Kohli is part of the ODI team

Virat Kohli will take part in the ODI series to be played against Sri Lanka. Along with this, captain Rohit Sharma will captain Team India on the Sri Lanka tour. Both the players had decided to retire from T20 cricket after the T20 World Cup. In such a situation, both the players are not a part of the T20 team. KL Rahul, captain of the ODI team Lucknow Super Giants, has also returned.

The tour will start from July 27

The Indian cricket team's tour of Sri Lanka will begin from July 27. On the Sri Lanka tour, the Indian cricket team will first play the T20 series. The first match of the T20 series will be played on July 27. After this, the second match will be played on July 28 and the third match on July 30.
