Team India travelled from Galle to Colombo to play the second Test match of the ongoing Test series in Sri Lanka with a 1-0 lead. The Men in Blue started the tour with a 165-run win over the hosts. Another win or even a draw will be enough for the team to whitewash the home team.
Through a 'X' post, Ankan Kar, a Sports Now journalist, shared a couple of photos from India's training and informed about the absentees.

KL Rahul played an 82-run innings in the Galle Test match against Sri Lanka
KL Rahul and Kuldeep were both part of the previous match, where the visitors kept their domination throughout the series. Rahul was brilliant with his batting in the first innings. In the first innings of the Galle Test match, the keeper-batter played an 82-run knock off 175 balls despite sustaining an injury.
About his injury, the team management informed that the batter felt a lot of cramps in his body, which made it impossible to carry on batting on the opening day of the match.
Kuldeep Yadav was unimpressive in the Galle Test
The experienced spinner claimed Kamindu Mendis' wicket in the first innings and then went wicketless in the second innings. As Kuldeep Yadav remained mostly ineffective in the match, his participation in the series decider in Colombo.
But why he missed the training session emerged as a question given India's recent struggles to maintain their top-tier talents' fitness across the formats of the game. The second Test of the series is scheduled to start on August 23 at the SSC cricket ground in Colombo.
