The T20 series against Sri Lanka is starting from July 27 in Pallekele. All three matches are to be played on this ground and Team India is busy preparing to win the series. This series is very special for Team India because both the captain and coach of the team are new. The command of the T20 team is in the hands of Suryakumar Yadav and Gautam Gambhir has become the head coach. Team India would like to win the T20 series in Sri Lanka easily and for this, special training started on the Pallekele ground. According to media reports, Team India did a special fielding drill on Thursday in which three captains of the team were made.

Hardik Pandya won the match

According to the report from Pallekele, Gautam Gambhir made Suryakumar Yadav, Shubman Gill and Hardik Pandya the captains. Each team had 5 members each. The players of all three teams had to hit a direct hit on a cone. All three teams gave their best but in the end Hardik Pandya's team won. Rishabh Pant hit 2 and Arshdeep Singh hit one direct hit. Shubman and Surya's team lagged behind in this matter.

Hardik and Surya had a long conversation

During the practice held on Thursday in Pallekele, Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav had a long conversation. For the first time after the captaincy controversy, both the players were seen talking for so long. After the victory in the T20 World Cup 2024, Hardik Pandya seemed certain to become the T20 captain, but considering his fitness, the Team India management gave this responsibility to Suryakumar Yadav. However, there is no rift in Team India due to this decision. Now it remains to be seen how Team India plays in the T20 series and whether it gets a clean sweep win or Sri Lanka will win at home.
