The Indian squad for the India VS Sri Lanka 2023 series was announced. Post-announcement, many senior players may be dejected. especially the likes of Shikhar Dhawan and Rishabh Pant. Dhawan has been given just three games to prove his mettle after serving the country for over seven years. In Rishabh?s case, he has always batted according to the needs of the team in the white-ball format. Every team brings in a new challenge. At the international level, anything can happen. So, who are the 3 players who can pose a big challenge to the Indian Cricket Team in the India VS Sri Lanka 2023 series:
Charith Asalanka can pose a challenge in the India VS Sri Lanka Series:
Asalanka has slid down the cards off-late. After having a good 2021 season his form dipped in the initial stage of 2022. But technically, he is still Sri Lanka?s top batter. He has the skill required to play against good spinners and pacers too. His game against spin has improved by four folds. He will bother the Indian bowling in the India VS Sri Lanka 2023 series. Here is a look at his stats:
Matches | 19 |
Runs | 752 |
Average | 47 |
Strike Rate | 102.3 |
Dasun Shanaka can pose a challenge in the India VS Sri Lanka Series:
The skipper of the Sri Lanka team and his contributions often go unnoticed. He is an exceptional pace bowler. He is so good that at times he starts bowling in the powerplay overs of the shortest format. Shanaka believes in his abilities. He is too good with the bat too. It is a pity that he has to bat number 7 due to the depth of the Sri Lankan batting.
He will bring his exceptional skill to the India VS Sri Lanka 2023 series. The India VS Sri Lanka 2023 series will see his bowling and batting abilities displayed in full bloom. The likes of Dhananjay De Silva also have the same potential as Dasun Shanaka. Here is a look at his stats:
Matches | 45 (ODI) |
Runs | 946 |
Batting Average | 24.9 |
Wickets | 14 |
Bowling Average | 37.6 |
Wanindu Hasaranga/ Maheesh Teekshana:
Hasaranga has always troubled the Indian Cricket Team. In the India VS Sri Lanka 2021 series, he harassed the team. Even though it was a second-string Indian team, he was unplayable. Especially Sanju Samson finds it difficult to neutralize Hasaranga. Teekshana is also a similar package. He bowls in the powerplay overs of the T20 format. His mystery is currently unresolved. He has a great set of variations to out-fox the batter. His flipper is one of the best.
