A crucial assignment for Team India

After losing the previous Test series in South Africa, India will be keen to regain its position in the WTC points table. However, it will be a challenging task. Sri Lanka is a tougher opposition in Tests than the T20Is. They play on similar pitches at home and will also have some experienced players in the squad.

Moreover, for India, this series will mark the beginning of a new era. While Rohit Sharma will lead the squad, the likes of Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteshwar Pujara are dropped. Hence, the batting unit will wear a fresh look. Amidst this, India should ensure a series win to stay relevant in the WTC discussion.
