India Announces Squad for Sri Lanka Test Series with New Players Included
India is set to play a two-match Test series against Sri Lanka starting August 15 in Galle. The squad includes new faces like spin-bowling all-rounder Saransh Jain and Manav Suthar, who is touring for the first time. Former cricketers Aakash Chopra and Murali Karthik expressed views on the players' prospects, with Chopra suggesting Saransh may not debut due to existing spin options, while Karthik highlighted the pressure on Suthar to perform. The team aims for a strong start despite some selection challenges.
