India Playing XI vs SL: Talking points

India vs Sri Lanka: Decisions to make
- Rishabh Pant vs Dinesh Karthik: Rishabh Pant has received the go-ahead in the middle order. The left-hander got an earful from captain Rohit Sharma after his shocking dismissal against Pakistan and he will be keen to set the record straight.
- Deepak Hooda vs Axar Patel: Deepak Hooda was retained in the side despite not bowling against Pakistan. The LSG star scored a sedate 14-ball 16 in the death overs, but the team management have decided to back him for the SL clash.
- Ravi Bishnoi vs R Ashwin: Ashwin has a favourable record against left-handers and with three-lefties in the SL line-up, the veteran was brought in for Ravi Bishnoi.
- Avesh Khan vs Arshdeep Singh: The young Punjab pacer might have had a bad day on the field but he was the best pacer against Pakistan. Arshdeep conceded just 27 runs in 3.5 overs. Despite Avesh returning to fitness, India have backed Arshdeep to come good against Sri Lanka.
