India May Play Three T20 Internationals Against Sri Lanka During Upcoming TourPreviousNext

India is considering playing three T20 International matches against Sri Lanka later this year during their tour for a two-Test series as part of the World Test Championship. The BCCI is exploring this possibility due to a 15-day window in the schedule. Additionally, the board has received a request from Nepal for an A team bilateral series. A three-member committee has been formed to draft a policy on cooling-off periods for former Indian players in overseas T20 leagues, though no specific time frame has been decided.
