3 India players whose Test careers could change after Sri Lanka tour
The two-match Test series against Sri Lanka in August 2026 has thrown up some clear talking points for India's Test future.
1. Kuldeep Yadav
Kuldeep Yadav has been a key spinner for India across formats, but his contribution in the 1st Test at Galle was limited. The left-arm wrist-spinner struggled for rhythm during the game, managing just one wicket across both innings. Kuldeep has been a differentiating factor for the side with his wrist spin, but his lack of penetration and threat in the last few series is a factor to note.
With Manav Suthar putting up impressive performances for the team, with 17 wickets in two matches, and the impending return of Washington Sundar from injury, Kuldeep could face stiff competition to keep his spot in the side, and his recent performances do not help his case.
