IND vs SL: 5 batters you must have in your Dream11 team during T20I series

The IND vs SL T20I series will get underway on July 27 at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium.

It is time for an exciting T20I series between two Asian sides. India, the current T20 World Champions, will take on the 2014 T20 World Cup winners Sri Lanka in a three-match T20I series in Pallekele.

This series will start with the first encounter on July 27 at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium. Both teams have a new full-time T20I skipper: Suryakumar Yadav will lead India and Charith Asalanka will lead the hosts.

India have a strong batting lineup, and they have two players in the top six T20I batters’ rankings. On the other hand, Sri Lankan batters are also coming off a good Lanka Premier League season.

In this article, we will talk about five batters whom you should pick for your Dream11 team for the upcoming IND vs SL T20Is.

Here are the five Batters you must have in your Dream11 team during the IND vs SL series:

5. Pathum Nissanka

Pathum Nissanka has been a consistent batter in white-ball cricket for the last year or so. The right-handed batter is elegant in his strokeplay and can play big shots with ease. He was the fourth-highest run-scorer in the LPL 2024. With his current form, we believe he will perform well for Sri Lanka.

4. Shubman Gill

Shubman Gill has scored the most runs in international cricket since 2023 across all three formats. He is expected to lead the Indian batting legacy forward and has proved himself as an all-format batter. He is also the vice-captain.

With this added responsibility, we might see him doing even better. He scored the most runs for India in the Zimbabwe T20Is, and it won’t be a surprise if he tops the run-scoring charts in the IND vs SL T20Is.

3. Yashasvi Jaiswal

Yashasvi Jaiswal is another Indian batter who is coming into this IND vs SL series with international form under his belt. He is the top-scorer in 2024 across formats and needs just 47 runs to complete 1000 runs in 2024.

Jaiswal likes to take on the bowlers right from the onset of his innings, which is why he will be a player to watch out for in the IND vs SL T20Is.

2. Kusal Mendis

Kusal Mendis has scored the most international runs for Sri Lanka since 2023. He is their key batter who performs consistently. He was the fifth-highest scorer in the LPL 2024. Mendis scored 329 runs at a strike rate close to 150 for Jaffna Kings, helping his side win the title with 72* in the final.

He has also done well against India, scoring 226 runs in six T20Is. So you should pick him in Dream11 teams during the IND vs SL T20Is.

1. Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav is the No. 2 ranked ICC T20I batter. His consistency in scoring almost every game while batting at a healthy strike rate is the reason why he is rated as the best T20 batter in the world. With the captaincy role, he is expected to flourish more and take on more responsibility with the bat. He will be the one batter who can be the perfect captain for your Dream11 team during the IND vs SL T20Is.
