All three matches will held at Colombo’s R Premadasa International Cricket Stadium.

Rohit Sharma will be back in charge and will be working together with the new head coach, Gautam Gambhir. India has already defeated Sri Lanka in a T20I series by 3-0, led by Suryakumar Yadav, and they are expected to do well in the ODI series due to their strong history against Sri Lanka.
