What will be your Indian squad for the Sri Lanka tour in July 2021?
A completely different yet specialist white ball Cricket team is all set for Srilanka tour this July said Sourav Ganguly.
"We have planned a white ball series for the senior men's team during the month of July where they will play T20 Internationals and ODIs in Sri Lanka,"
"The Indian team travelling to Sri Lanka will be white ball specialists and it will be completely different team". - BCCI President Ganguly
India will play at least 5 T20 Internationals and 3 ODIs in this Sri Lanka tour and it is likely to start from the 2nd Week of July. It will be interesting to see a completely new white ball team as Ganguly cleared that players from main line-up of India which will play WTC final & England tests will not be involved in this Srilanka tour.
So India will have to make squad excluding these players👇👇👇
