Preview
India will host Sri Lanka in the first T20I of the three-match series on Tuesday (January 3) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Hardik Pandy will be leading a very young Indian team in this series along with Suryakumar Yadav, who has been appointed as the vice-captain for this series. The team lost the semi-final of the T20 World Cup last year, and since then, there has been uncertainty looming over the team's future. With Hardik in the realm, the Indian team management might have hinted at how the team will look in the future. But plenty of questions about the team combination still need to be answered.
Sri Lanka won the Asia Cup last year after defeating Pakistan in the final. But they couldn't recreate the same magic in the T20 World Cup as they lost their opening game against Namibia and then lost three out of four matches in their last stage. Asitha Fernando and Jeffery Vandersay, who were a part of the T20 WC squad, have not been picked for this series. Vandersay, however, is in the ODI squad, which will start on January 10. Dushmantha Chameera is yet to recover from the injury he sustained during the World Cup and is out of the squad. Some players who had a great outing in the recently completed Lanka Premier League have found their place in the team.

Player Picks
Ishan Kishan IND | WK
In his last international outing, Ishan Kishan scored the fastest double-century in ODIs. He has made over 500 runs in 21 T20Is at an average of 29.45 and a strike rate of 129.16.
Hardik Pandya IND | ALL
The captain of the Indian team was the fourth-highest run-scorer for India in 2022. He made 607 runs in 27 matches at an average of 33.72 and a strike rate of 145.91.
Suryakumar Yadav IND | BAT
The number one T20I batter in the ICC rankings was the best batter for India in the shortest format last year. He became the first player to score over 1000 runs in T20Is in a calendar year. He made his T20I debut in March 2021 and is among the top ten run-scorer for India in this format.
Arshdeep Singh IND | BOWL
The left-arm pacer made his T20I debut in July last year and finished as the second-highest wicket-taker for the team in the format. He picked 33 wickets in 21 matches at an average of 18.12, an economy of 8.17, and a strike rate of 13.3.
Wanindu Hasaranga SL | ALL
He is the number one T20I bowler in the ICC rankings and was the leading wicket-taker for Sri Lanka last year. He picked ten wickets in ten matches in the Lanka Premier League 2022 at an average of 21.8.
Kusal Mendis SL | WK
He made 256 runs in nine matches in the LPL 2022 at an average of 28.44 and a strike rate of 122.48, including three half-centuries. He will be playing his 50th T20I game for Sri Lanka and has scored over 1000 runs.
Bhanuka Rajapaksa SL | BAT
The left-handed batter has not been in great form in recent times and managed just 95 runs in seven matches of the LPL 2022. He was the leading run-scorer for Sri Lanka in Asia Cup last year, and Sri Lanka will be hoping that he delivers a similar performance in this series.
Yuzvendra Chahal IND | BOWL
He is the most experienced bowler in India's squad in this series. Chahal has taken 87 wickets in 71 T20I matches at an average of 24.78. He is just three wickets from becoming the leading wicket-taker for India.
Shubman Gill IND | BAT
The prolific right-handed batter will likely make his T20I debut for India in this game. He has made over 2500 runs in 95 T20 matches at an average of 33.46.
Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team
Sadeera Samarawickrama
SL | WK
He was the second-highest run-scorer in LPL 2022. However, he is not likely to make it to the playing 11 in this game.
Axar Patel
IND | ALL
With Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar already in the mix, Axar Patel might not feature in this game and can be avoided for this game.
