“They are now heading towards the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru for further treatment of their injuries”, said an official announcement.

After winning this T20I match against West Indies, Team India will try to take their winning streak to the next three matches in the series against Sri Lanka, beginning Thursday.

India and Sri Lanka will square off in three T20Is as well as two Tests. The opening match of the series is scheduled to take place in Lucknow on Thursday.

Some of the players like Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, and Shardul Thakur are all resting for the series with Sri Lanka and hence it gives a chance to players like Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shreyas Iyer to demonstrate the potential they have.
