After clinching an exciting three-match T20I series by a margin of 2-1, Team India's next assignment is also against Sri Lanka but in a different format. The Men in Blue will cross swords against the Islanders in a three-match ODI series with the first match slated to be played on January 10 (Tuesday) at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. The big guns of Indian cricket - captain Rohit Sharma, maverick batter Virat Kohli and stylish willow-wielder KL Rahul - will all mark their return with Hardik Pandya donning the vice-captain's hat.
Ace paceman Jasprit Bumrah was pulled out of the Indian squad at the eleventh hour after complaining of 'back stiffness'. In his absence, the onus to lead the bowling will fall on Mohammed Shami's shoulders. Shami will have able company in Mohammed Siraj while it would be interesting to see who gets the nod between Arshdeep Singh and Umran Malik.
