Sri Lanka vs India

Shikhar Dhawan will be the captain alongside Rahul Dravid as the head coach for this relatively inexperienced India squad for the upcoming Sri Lanka tour. In the absence of star players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, both Dhawan and Dravid are quite excited for this Lanka series and they are hoping to give opportunities to as many players in order to help them showcase their skills at the big stage.

“It’s a great honor for me to be captain of the Indian team. I am looking forward to it. I’ve played under Rahul Dravid’s coaching once for India A. We sync together really well and looking forward to the Sri Lanka series. We’ll build a lot of positive things. The aim is to build a happy environment,” Shikhar Dhawan said in the pre-departure press conference.

“This is a very good team. There is positivity, confidence in our team and everybody is confident that we will do well. There is a lot of excitement. It is a new challenge but at the same time, it is a great opportunity for all of us to show our talent.

“Everybody is waiting (for the tour to begin). 13-14 days have passed since we are in quarantine, so the players are waiting when we can hit the ground and we have 10-12 days for preparation. The team is a nice blend of experience and youth,” added Shikhar Dhawan.
