Delhi: In what would come as a surprise for fans, India allrounder Hardik Pandya is set to miss the three ODI ‘s versus Sri Lanka. Hardik would be missing the three ODIs versus Sri Lanka due to personal reasons. Now, this would certainly start unnecessary speculations. He is likely to be part of the T20I set up. The announcement of the India squads is likely to happen on Tuesday. It would be interesting to see who is made the captain of the T20I set up. Also, Gautam Gambhir would take over as India’s head coach from this series on.

As per a report in the Indian Express, the Indian board is concerned about Hardik’s fitness and they have already received a feedback about Suryakumar.

“It is a delicate matter. There is an argument on both sides of the debate and thus everyone is not on the same page. Hardik’s fitness is an issue but he played a big role in breaking India’s ICC jinx. As for Suryakumar, we have received feedback from the team that his captaincy style was well received by the dressing room,” said a BCCI source involved in decision-making.

Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma has been travelling consistently following the T20 WC triumph. After returning to India, the whole India team went to meet PM Narendra Modi in Delhi before flying to Mumbai for a open-bus road show.
