The official announcement of the Indian team for the Sri Lanka tour has not been made but according to sources, the team will be announced by Sunday 21. According to ESPN, Indian team head coach Gautam Gambhir has demanded to make Suryakumar Yadav the full-time captain of the T20I. Rohit Sharma announced his retirement from short format after T20 World Cup 2024, after which questions are being raised on captaincy.

NZ vs PAK: The fifth T20I between New Zealand and Pakistan will be played on 26 March at Wellington’s Sky Stadium, which has hosted 22 T20Is—10 won batting first, 12 chasing. The average first-innings score is 153, but high totals like NZ’s 219/6 and successful chases like Australia’s 216 show it can be a batting-friendly ground. Key performers here include Martin Guptill (453 runs) and Ish Sodhi (17 wickets). With chasing slightly favored and spinners often influential, the match could hinge on whether Pakistan’s batters or New Zealand’s home advantage proves decisive.
