India vs Sri Lanka 1st T20 preview: Kohli's men look to begin 2020 on high

putting up an overall great show last year, Virat
Kohli-led
India cricket team would look to begin 2020 on a high as they face a
well-known opponent in Sri Lanka cricket team in the first T20I at
the Barsapara stadium in Guwahati on Sunday.
The
three-T20I series would also be useful for the hosts to prepare for
the upcoming series against Australia and New Zealand.
Jasprit
Bumrah's comeback after injury would be a highlight as the ace pacer
has been out of action since August 2019. India is shouldering
responsibility on a young side. Shikhar Dhawan would look to regain
his form if he makes it to India's playing 11 while KL Rahul would
eye another confidence booster after a decent show in recently
concluded series.
India's
bowling line-up seems interesting in the absence of Mohammad Shami,
Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Deepak Chahar. Also, Navdeep Saini, Shardul
Thakur and Washington Sundar would look to make the most of the
opportunity and Bumrah's experience would be crucial for India.
In
the batting line-up, Manish Pandey, Sanju Samson and Shivam Dube
would expect more chances to cement their place in the Indian team
for the upcoming series. Readmore
