IND vs SL | In the limited overs series between India and Sri Lanka starting on July 13, many young Indian players will have a great opportunity to show their abilities. In view of the T20 World Cup to be held this year, the eyes of the selectors are going to be on this series. Many players including Prithvi Shaw, Krunal Pandya, Suryakumar Yadav will try to show their strength on this tour. Shikhar Dhawan, who is taking over the captaincy in the absence of senior players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, would also like to ensure his place in the World Cup squad by performing well against Sri Lanka. Let's take a look at the five players for whom this series is going to be very important in terms of the World Cup.

Prithvi Shaw

Prithvi Shaw, who first showed his bat in Vijay Hazare and then IPL 2021, would now like to leave his mark at the international level. Looking at Shaw's recent form, he can be included in the T20 World Cup squad. Shaw can be seen opening with Shikhar Dhawan in the limited overs series against Sri Lanka. Prithvi Shaw impressed everyone with his attacking batting in the 14th season of the Indian Premier League. In such a situation, this Mumbai batsman would like to strengthen his claim by performing well on this tour.

Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav won the hearts of everyone with his batting in his debut series against England. Suryakumar himself had praised Jofra Archer for six on his own ball of international career. Captain Virat Kohli was also very impressed with Surya's batting and his selection in the T20 World Cup team is believed to be fixed. However, everyone's eyes will definitely be on Suryakumar's performance on the Sri Lanka tour. If this Mumbai batsman is successful in making his mark in this series, then he will cement his place in the team of T20 World Cup.

krunal pandya

In the absence of Axar Patel, Krunal Pandya will have a great chance to prove himself on this tour of Sri Lanka. Krunal has the ability to perform well with both bat and ball. Krunal had been an important member of the T20 team some time back, but was dropped from the team after not showing much play in the home season of 2019-20. In the ODI series played against England, Krunal returned after a year, but he failed to make it to the T20 team. In such a situation, Krunal would like to show in this series that he fits perfectly in the team of the shortest format of cricket.

Rahul Chahar

The poor form of Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal has opened the doors of Team India for young spin bowlers. This is the reason why the Indian selectors included young bowlers like Rahul Chahar, Varun Chakraborty and Rahul Teotia in the team for the recently played T20 series. Rahul Chahar was included in the playing XI against England and he also took two wickets. After this, this spinner impressed with his bowling in IPL 2021 as well, taking 11 wickets in 7 matches. If Rahul is able to continue his good form on the Sri Lanka tour, then he can join Virat Kohli's army.

Varun Chakraborty

For the third time in a row, the team management has shown confidence in Varun Chakraborty, who created a sensation with his spin bowling in IPL 2020. Varun could not travel to Australia due to injury. After this Varun was also selected in the team for the limited overs series against England, but he failed to pass the fitness test. In such a situation, this KKR bowler will have a golden opportunity to show his skills on this tour. Varun had a good run in IPL 2021 as well and took seven wickets in 7 matches.
