IND vs SL | The three match T20 series between India and Sri Lanka is going to start from 24 February i.e. tomorrow. But before that bad news has come for the visiting team. Two players from the team, Kusal Mendis and Mahesh Dikshana, may be ruled out of the first T20 due to injuries. According to reports, both these players are suffering from a hamstring injury, due to which it is difficult to play in the first T20. Earlier, star spinner Wanindu Hasaranga is out of the entire series due to being found Kovid-19 positive.

This can prove to be a big setback for Sri Lanka. Both these players were part of the Sri Lankan team in the recently concluded T20 series in Australia. Kusal Mendis played an innings of 69 runs in the last match to win the team, while Dikshana took 5 wickets during the entire series. However, Sri Lanka had to face defeat 1-4 in this series.

Let us tell you, the first match of the T20 series is to be played at Lucknow's Ekana Stadium, while the next two matches will be held in Dharamsal. After the T20 series, there will also be a two-match Test series between India and Sri Lanka. The first Test has been hosted by Mohali, while the second Test will be played in Bangalore.
