Cricbuzz has learnt that Ishan Porel, Sandeep Warrier, Arshdeep Singh, Sai Kishore, Simarjeet Singh, who were all taken to Sri Lanka as net bowlers, have been included as regular members of the squad.
The move became imperative after eight regular players from the touring party have become ineligible for having come in close contact with Krunal Pandya, who has tested positive and has been separated from the squad. Although all of them had returned negative results in the RT-PCR test conducted on Tuesday (July 27), they are unlikely to feature in the match. Veteran Shikhar Dhawan is available to lead the side.
