The two-match Test series between India and Sri Lanka begins March 4 in Mohali. Rohit Sharma will start his new role as skipper of the Test side in the first Test. On the other hand, Virat Kohli will wear the whites of the Indian cricket team for the 100th time. With the start of the test series, the hosts must defend a few records. It is important to note that India has dominated Sri Lanka at home in tests.
So far, India has played Sri Lanka at home 20 times, with the former winning 11 times and the latter drawing nine times.
The Sri Lankan team has yet to win a Test match against India, a streak Rohit hopes to continue.
It is interesting to note that if India wins, they will become the only side to have defeated Sri Lanka 21 times.
India’s Test series against Sri Lanka will be remembered as a fresh start under Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid.
As Virat’s captain, India lost the Test series against South Africa away, after winning the series at home against New Zealand.
Whatever combination the coach and captain choose will be fascinating to watch. With Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane out, the young guns could take their place.
