IND vs SL: India is all set to kick start the year 2023 with the three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka. The first game will be played on 3rd January at iconic Wankhede Stadium followed by the second game slated to take place on 5th January in Pune. The last and final game will be played on 7th January in Rajkot.
2 Indian Players who should get an opportunity for the T20I Series against Sri Lanka
The Indian T20 squad for the series against Sri Lanka is yet to be announced. It is expected that there’ll be a transition in the team with a lot of youngsters getting the opportunities. As the squad is expected to be released in the next few days, we take look at 2 Indian Players who should get an opportunity for the T20I Series against Sri Lanka.
Sanju Samson
It’s fair to say that Sanju Samson is the unluckiest Indian cricketer. Despite good performances in the domestic circuit and IPL, the keeper batter hasn’t gotten the desired chances in the team. He didn’t get a chance in the T20I series in New Zealand. With Rishabh Pant not being quite up to the mark in the T20Is, the team needs to look it further and therefore Samson is the most deserving player who should get an opportunity for the T20I Series against Sri Lanka. In the 16 games so far, he has scored 296 runs at an average of 21.14 and a strike rate of 135.16.
I hope Sanju Samson is part of India squads for both T20I and ODI series against SL and NZ. And gets a consistent long run. #INDvSL #INDvNZ

Prithvi Shaw
Since representing India in July 2021, when he was part of a second-string squad that toured Sri Lanka for three ODIs and as many T20Is. Prithvi Shaw hasn’t been part of India’s squad. However, he has been a consistent performer in the domestic circuit and is continuously knocking on the doors of selectors. He also is leading Mumbai in the domestic games and is doing a terrific job as a skipper as well. Shaw had a terrific Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, where he scored 332 runs in 10 innings at a strike rate of 181.42. Not only this, he has been staggering in IPL as well as he has been providing his team with fiery starts. With the kind of performance he has been displaying, he is among the 2 Indian Players who should get an opportunity for the T20I Series against Sri Lanka
Kindly add Prithvi Shaw in the lineup too..
