Delhi: The three-match T20 International series between India and Sri Lanka will start from July 27, all the matches of which will be played in Pallekele. The T20 series between India and Sri Lanka will start from July 27 and the last match will be played on July 30. The command of the team will be in the hands of Suryakumar Yadav. At the same time, Team India has reached Sri Lanka under the supervision of new head coach Gautam Gambhir. On July 23, the Indian players did net practice, in which captain Suryakumar inadvertently made a mistake. He revealed a strategy to Akshar Patel, which was captured in the video of the broadcaster of the upcoming series.

In the video of Sony Sports, it was shown that Surya and Mohammad Siraj were coming down the stairs and Akshar Patel was also following them. During this, Surya said, 'Take it easy, take it easy. You are going to be seen in the third-fourth over.' This made it clear that the Indian team will make Akshar bowl in the powerplay. He can be put on attack in the third or fourth over, because Sri Lankan pitches are helpful for spinners.

Akshar also bowled in the powerplay during the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 played in the USA and West Indies last month and took nine wickets in eight matches. Akshar will be the main spinner in this series against Sri Lanka, as Ravindra Jadeja has retired from T20 Internationals. Ravi Bishnoi and Washington Sundar are also in the team to support Akshar.

Indian team for T20 International series against Sri Lanka: Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Shubman Gill (vice-captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rinku Singh, Riyan Parag, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Sanju Samson (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dubey, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Khalil Ahmed and Mohammad Siraj.
