Batsman Virat Kohli has been rested for the three T20 internationals against Sri Lanka in February in front of the Asia Cup later in the month. Delhi left-arm spinner Pawan Negi, who used to play for Chennai Super Kings in the IPL, got his first ring to the India side.

Swing bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who missed the late three-match T20I arrangement against Australia because of a broke thumb, has likewise been named in the squad alongside center request batsman Manish Pandey.

Kohli was the most noteworthy run-getter in the T20I arrangement in Australia that India cleared 3-0 on Sunday, counting 199 keeps running in three matches with a half-century in every diversion. In the previous ODI arrangement, Kohli had struck two centuries and two fifties, scoring 381 keeps running in five matches at a normal of 76.20.

A pity. Given Kohli's remarkable run, it should have been sustained as long as possible.
