3 Indian players under pressure in the Sri Lanka Test series

1. Rishabh Pant

Rishabh Pant finds himself out of the pecking order in both white-ball formats after being earmarked as one of India's next all-format superstars. Pant returns to India whites, a format where he has to date tasted most success, but with others in his position also performing, failure could impact his place in the side.

Coming off a dismal IPL season, the Haridwar-born made up for it with a well-made 81 against Afghanistan, but a solitary score would not be enough to maintain his spot, with Dhruv Jurel having shone as a keeper-batter in Pant's absence. He will be in severe need of runs under his belt in a format where he averages 43.37 and has dominated spinners and pacers alike.
