The BCCI announced Team India's squads for ODI and T20 series against Sri Lanka. While there were a few expected calls, there were some surprises as well, as usual whenever there is a team selection not just in T20Is but ODIs as well given the Men in Blue now have to prepare for Champions Trophy.
Hardik Pandya was the designated vice-captain of Team India and the deputy to Rohit Sharma during the ICC Men's T20 World Cup. He has more leadership experience at the international level compared to Suryakumar Yadav.
Suryakumar Yadav has led India in eight T20Is after the ODI World Cup 2023 - in five games against Australia and in three against South Africa. Hardik Pandya was seen as a natural successor for Rohit Sharma in T20Is but now Surya is reportedly set to become the captain for the Sri Lanka T20Is.
Team India is scheduled to tour Sri Lanka for three T20Is and as many ODIs later this month. With Rohit Sharma retired from the shortest format, the captaincy has now been shifted to Hardik Pandya which isn't a surprise given that the latter led whenever the regular captain didn't play.
India are scheduled to travel to Sri Lanka for a multi-format series at the end of July 2024. The Men in Blue will lock horns against the Lankan Lions in a three-match T20I and a three-match ODI series. The BCCI has revealed the revised fixtures of India's tour of Sri Lanka.
Team India is currently involved in the five-match T20I series against Zimbabwe with two matches left to be played on July 13 and 14 respectively. Majority of the players from the current squad are expected to be part of the T20Is in Sri Lanka as well.
Chris Silverwood resigned as Sri Lanka's head coach following the team's disappointing performance in the T20 World Cup 2024, where they were knocked out in the group stage itself. Former skipper Sanath Jayasuriya has been named as the interim coach of the team until they tour England.
India's international calendar continues to be hectic in 2024. The team rested for almost a month after the WTC final earlier this year but since then, the players are continuously playing. Even within four days after the World Cup final, India's T20I series vs Australia started last week.
