India vs Sri Lanka 2017: 5 things to watch out for in the T20I series

There are plenty of fresh faces in this Indian side, including Deepak Hooda and Shreyas Iyer. Their exuberance is sure to entertain the viewers. On the other hand, players like Rohit Sharma and MS. Dhoni will be tasked with shepherding the side and keeping things calm in the middle.

KL Rahul also returns to the squad, making it an interesting battle for the No. 3 and No. 4 slots. Iyer has started his international career with a bang, notching a couple of good 50s batting at No. 3, and hence should feature in the same spot in the T20I series as well. Rahul though does not have too much cricket under his belt lately so might not make the playing XI for the initial games.
