SL vs IND ODI series: After the conclusion of the T20 matches between Sri Lanka and India, now it is the turn of the thrill of the ODI format. On the tour, Team India made a blast by winning the T20 series 3-0 and now it will try to continue its momentum in the ODI series as well. The first ODI of the three-match series between these two teams is to be held on August 2, which will be played at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. Team India's squad has two legends in the form of captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who were on a break since the T20 World Cup 2024. In such a situation, the matter is not going to be easy for Sri Lanka.
Talking about bowling, the Indian team has rested Jasprit Bumrah from the series but the pair of Mohammad Siraj and Arshdeep Singh will be seen playing. Khaleel Ahmed and Harshit Rana will also be there to support them. While in the spin department, there will be two all-rounders in the form of Akshar Patel and Washington Sundar along with Kuldeep Yadav. In the T20 series, Sri Lanka's batting was seen faltering after a good start in all three matches in front of the Indian bowlers. Something similar can also be seen in ODI matches. In this article, we are going to mention 3 such bowlers who can take the most wickets against Sri Lanka in the ODI series for Team India.
Young left-arm fast bowler Arshdeep Singh has not got many opportunities in the ODI format yet but he has performed brilliantly for Team India in T20 matches. Arshdeep has the ability to swing the ball in the beginning and can also bowl accurate yorkers along with his variations in the last overs. Arshdeep was the highest wicket-taker for Team India in the recent T20 World Cup. Looking at his recent form, he can be called one of the contenders for the highest wicket-taker for India in the ODI series starting against Sri Lanka.
Chinaman Kuldeep Yadav has shone in both ODI and T20 formats after his comeback. Kuldeep has performed brilliantly for Team India so far and his record against Sri Lanka is also excellent. This bowler has so far taken 18 wickets in 12 ODIs against the Sri Lankan team and his economy is less than five. If there is even a little help for the spin bowlers in Colombo, then Kuldeep's havoc can be seen. For this reason, he has been placed at the second position among the contenders for the highest wicket taker.
Indian fast bowler Mohammed Siraj can be on top in terms of taking the most wickets for his team in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. The reason behind this is Siraj's tremendous record against Sri Lanka. The right-handed player has played only 6 matches against the Sri Lankan team so far and has 19 wickets to his name. His best bowling performance is taking 6 wickets for 21 runs. In such a situation, Siraj will once again be expected to give a similar tremendous performance against Sri Lanka.
