Sri Lanka vs India 2017: Probable Indian ODI squad

Spinners

Kuldeep has impressed Virat Kohli with his performances

Kuldeep Yadav

Having already made his Test debut, Kuldeep Yadav has impressed Virat Kohli greatly. So much so, that Kohli has said that his willingness to bowl in any situation and attack is a huge positive.

In his brief international career, the chinaman bowler has already earned the admiration of the skipper and for a spinner, that is a huge deal. So, it wouldn't come as a surprise if he is one of the three spinners India decide to go with for the limited-overs leg of the Sri Lanka series.

Ravichandran Ashwin

Despite the fact Ashwin hasn't played a great deal of limited-overs cricket, India are happy to persist with the off-spinner. While he has been incredible in the longest format of the game, his returns haven't been as good in ODIs, a format that he has barely played in the last two years.

However, in West Indies, he did show signs that he was ready to experiment to keep up with the game. And that might just be enough to ensure that he retains his spot in the side.

Ravindra Jadeja

Although Amit Mishra was brilliant in his last ODI series, Axar Patel was the highest ranked Indian ODI bowler going into the ICC Champions Trophy. India have persisted with Ravindra Jadeja and look certain to do so against Sri Lanka as well. His incredible athleticism and fielding are a big boost but he will need to contribute more with the ball if he wants to retain his place in the side.
