While the white-ball squad under VVS Laxman has already landed in Zimbabwe for the three-match T20I series, starting on July 23 in Harare, the Ajit Agarkar-led selection committee is likely to announce the squad soon for the upcoming tour of Sri Lanka. Amid this, Ravichandran Ashwin says selectors should not force out Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.
This tour is likely to see the return of some big names like Ravindra Jadeja, mainly because of Washington Sundar's injury. Earlier, Venkatesh Prasad defends Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli amid retirement buzz.
Ravindra Jadeja and Jasprit Bumrah set for blockbuster Test comeback against Sri Lanka
As reported by Times of India, the Indian selection committee is all set to announce the Test squad for the upcoming Sri Lanka tour soon, as they and team management have already had a discussion during the recently concluded white-ball series in England.
Jadeja's return is a big boost for Team India. He was rested for the Afghanistan Test after a long IPL 2026 season, but the team management still sees him as India's first-choice spinner in Test cricket. His experience with both bat and ball will be very important in Sri Lankan conditions.
Even if Sundar has only a minor hamstring strain, he may need around two weeks to attain full match fit. He is now expected to report to the BCCI Centre of Excellence, where he will undergo more tests before getting fitness clearance. The selectors are waiting for his medical report before taking the final call on his selection for the Sri Lanka tour.
India's pace attack almost locked in for Sri Lanka Tests
Kuldeep Yadav and Manav Suthar are expected to remain in the squad. India's pace attack is almost finalized. Jasprit Bumrah is leading the attack that is likely to feature Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, and Gurnoor Brar.
There are not expected to be many changes in the batting department. However, the selectors still have to decide on Nitish Kumar Reddy, who is also recovering at the BCCI Centre of Excellence. If he fails to retain the match fitness, India may pick a specialist player instead.
