Indian players who could make their Test debut vs Sri Lanka
Let's take a look at three Indian players who could earn their maiden Test caps during the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka.
Gurnoor Brar
Gurnoor Brar made his international debut during the ODI series against Afghanistan in June. He has had an impressive start, picking up 11 wickets in six ODIs, despite conceding runs at an economy rate of 6.96. His tall frame helps him extract bounce even from some placid surfaces. He will be waiting eagerly for his red-ball debut and many feel that this format will suit him the most.
When it comes to first-class cricket, the 26-year-old has played 19 matches, picking up 62 wickets at an average of 25.24 and a strike rate of 41.40. This includes two five-wicket hauls. Brar might not get too much assistance from the wickets in Sri Lanka. However, if there is variable bounce, he could become lethal with his height and ability to target the stumps.
