3 players who can replace injured Sai Sudharsan in India's Test squad vs Sri Lanka
Sudharsan has been ruled out of the first Test against Sri Lanka due to a right big toe injury sustained during the second unofficial Test in Galle.
2. Abhimanyu Easwaran
Abhimanyu Easwaran is a right-handed top-order batter from Bengal who has been on the fringes of the Indian Test setup for some time. He has been a regular performer in the Ranji Trophy and has previously been named in India squads as a reserve batter, which reflects the selectors' confidence in his red-ball credentials.
Easwaran's experience as a reserve in the Test setup means he is familiar with the environment and expectations at the highest level. He has consistently scored runs in domestic cricket and has the technique to handle the challenges posed by Sri Lankan conditions. His ability to play both pace and spin with composure makes him a reliable option for the selectors as they look to cover the gap left by Sudharsan's absence.
