India and Sri Lanka are set to lock horns in the second game of the two-match Test series beginning on Saturday, March 12. The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru will host the day-night contest.

The opening Test at the PCA Stadium in Mohali turned out to be a completely one-sided affair. Rohit Sharma and Co. won the game by an innings and 222 runs to take a 1-0 lead in the series.

Axar Patel, in the meantime, has replaced Kuldeep Yadav in the Indian squad.

India have won both their day-night Tests at home thus far against Bangladesh and England respectively. The Lankans, on the other hand, are still searching for their maiden Test win on Indian soil in more than 40 years.

On that note, here's a look at three players who could be ideal picks for captains or vice-captains in your Dream 11 side for the second Test between India and Sri Lanka:


#3 Ravindra Jadeja (India)

Ravindra Jadeja will be high on confidence after winning the Player of the Match award in the Mohali Test. The southpaw also became the sixth cricketer to score 150 plus runs in an innings and pick up a five-wicket haul in the same Test.

Among Indians, only Vinoo Mankad and Polly Umrigar achieved the feat before Jadeja. He also picked up a four-wicket haul in the second innings of the encounter at the PCA Stadium.


#2 Ravichandran Ashwin (India)

Ravichandran Ashwin has been a key performer for India, especially in home conditions. The right-arm spinner picked up six wickets, including a four-wicket haul in the second innings, in the Mohali Test.

He also surpassed Kapil Dev to become India’s second-highest Test wicket-taker.

He performed to the extent that skipper Rohit Sharma went on to call him an "all-time great." Ashwin also scored 61 runs in India's first innings of the opening Test in Mohali.


#1 Rishabh Pant (India)

Rishabh Pant can be a tad erratic with his shot-making, but when he gets going, there's no stopping him.

In the first Test, he smashed 96 runs off 97 balls with the help of nine fours and four sixes. Suranga Lakmal dismissed him to cut short his stay.

Pant has been reasonable in Test cricket in recent times. Moreover, he has played some handy knocks for India at home.

In a game where India may end up batting once, Pant could be a handy pick for your team. He will also fetch points through his keeping skills.
