Apart from Rohit, Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, Shreyas Iyer, Mohammed Shami, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, and KL Rahul will all be back for the series. Suryakumar Yadav, who produced his third T20I century on Saturday, will be the centre of attention (January 7).
When the series switches to Guwahati, Rohit and Co will try to get off to a winning start, while the visitors will look to rebound from their thrashing loss in the third T20I. India and Sri Lanka will meet for the first time at the Barsapara Stadium, where they were supposed to play in a T20I in 2020 but were forced to cancel due to rain.
