India vs Sri Lanka 1st ODI: India, after whitewashing the host Sri Lanka in a T20I series by 3-0 will play their first ODI today. Suryakumar Yadav‘s debut as a captain in a T20I series was great. His pitch awareness in the final T20I match of the series snatched the victory from the jaws of defeat. He gave the penultimate over to Rinku Singh on the turning track, and the part-time off-spinner didn’t disappoint. The biggest gamble he played in the match paid a massive dividend as India tied the match to win it in the super over. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will return after a brief break from the international matches. Both have announced their retirement from the T20I after winning the T20 World Cup 2024, but they will play ODI and Test matches.
