In addition, India’s greatest players, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, said goodbye to Twenty20 Internationals after the Men in Blue’s Caribbean championship run.
In the quickest format possible, Gambhir chose Suryakumar by hand for the open leadership position as his first task as head coach.

India’s trip of Sri Lanka will begin with a three-match Twenty20 International series.
