A three-match ODI series is being played between India and Sri Lanka. The first match between the two teams was a tie and the second match was won by Sri Lanka. Due to this, the Indian team is now in danger of losing the series. If Team India has to make a comeback in the series by winning the third match, then tough decisions will have to be taken and their main player KL Rahul will also have to be dropped from this series.

KL Rahul's card was cut

Talking about KL Rahul, his performance in the first and second ODIs was not good. He has returned to the team after a long time. He did not get a place in the team for the T20 World Cup but he did make a comeback in the ODI team but his performance was not that good. In both the matches, he had opportunities to finish the match but he could not take advantage of it. In the second match, he was out without opening the account at a crucial time and hence KL Rahul should be out of the third ODI.

Rishabh Pant may get a chance

Team India should give Rishabh Pant a chance in place of KL Rahul. Rishabh Pant can be included in the playing eleven for team combination. He is a left-handed batsman and some variety will be seen in his batting. In such a situation, it can be a good decision to exclude KL Rahul and include Pant in the playing eleven.

Changes can be seen in the third ODI

The Indian team had to face defeat in the second ODI against Sri Lanka. While chasing the runs, Team India lost the second match by 32 runs. This has raised many questions about the Indian team. Coach Gautam Gambhir's strategy and what mistakes he has made are also being discussed a lot. Questions are also being raised on the team combination. There can be many changes in Team India's playing eleven for the third match.
