ODI Ind vs SL

The Ind vs SL ODI series that currently underway carry very much significance as far as Team India is concerned. With the ICC ODI World Cup just a few months away, that too in the Indian Subcontinent itself, Team India has to get its player combination traversing the right path after a dismal performance in all 3 formats last year. The spate of injuries that plagued the top performers like Bumrah and Jadeja and the ones included in the Playing XI, failing to live up to their reputation, the Indian team suffered humiliating defeats, especially in the multilateral events. The form of the star batters like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who had a forgettable 2022, have however started the New Year on a promising note. The 1st ODI Ind with SL, in this 3 match series, however has shown signs that the team performance is turning around, however consistency remains the key.
