Star players Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli return to the international stage for the first time since winning the T20 World Cup as the Men in Blue lock horns against the Lankan Lions for the first of 3 ODIs at Colombo.
It will also mark the first time that the Rohit-Virat duo will be working with new head coach Gautam Gambhir. It will be especially interesting to see how Gambhir works with Rohit as he has backed both him and Kohli to possibly play for India in the 2027 World Cup if the senior pair remain fit.
On the other hand, Sri Lanka’s injury woes continue as pacers Matheesha Pathirana and Dilshan Madushanka have both departed the squad with hamstring and shoulder injuries respectively, with uncapped Mohamed Shiraz and Eshan Malinga added as their replacements.
The 1st ODI between India and Sri Lanka will take place on Friday, August 2, 2024, from 2:30 PM IST. The live broadcast of the match will be available to watch on Sony Sports Ten 1, Sony Sports Ten 1 HD, Sony Sports Ten 5 and Sony Sports Ten 5 HD.
The livestream of the match will be available on SonyLIV. You can also catch the action in OTTPlay.
