Sri Lanka Monday named a 15-member squad led by the newly appointed Twenty20 skipper Upul Tharanga for a one-off match against India at the Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.
India pacer Jasprit Bumrah has made handsome gains in the bowlers' rankings, jumping as many as 27 places to be fourth behind Mitchell Starc, Imran Tahir and leader Josh Hazlewood. The latest rankings were released today, a day after India completed a 5-0 whitewash of hosts Sri Lanka in the ODI series.
Jasprit Bumrah starred with the ball for India, ending the ODI series as the highest wicket-taker with 15 scalps, six more than the second best Akila Dananjaya.
Kohli said the good show in Sri Lanka will boost the confidence of his side when they take on Australia in a five-match ODI series starting later this month.
Virat Kohli's 30th ODI hundred in his 194th game is now jointly second highest in list of century makers alongside Ricky Ponting with only Sachin Tendulkar (49 hundreds) ahead of him.
