The Sri Lankan cricket team are touring India in February and March 2022 to play two Test and three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches.[1][2] The Test series will form part of the 2021–2023 ICC World Test Championship.[3][4] In September 2021, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) confirmed the schedule for the tour.[5][6] In January 2022, Sri Lanka Cricket made a request to play the T20I matches first, as the T20I squad would be coming straight from their tour of Australia.[7] In early February, the change was agreed by both boards, with Bangalore hosting a day/night Test match,[8][9] with the BCCI confirming the revised tour schedule.[10]
On 2 February 2022, Sri Lankan fast bowler Suranga Lakmal announced that he would retire from all forms of international cricket following the series.[11] On 19 February 2022, India named their squads for the matches, with Rohit Sharma appointed as their new Test captain.[12] On 26 February 2022, it was announced that the first match of the Test series would be played behind closed doors, with spectators being allowed to attend the second Test match.[13] However, on 1 March 2022, the crowd capacity for the first Test was increased to 50%.[14]
In the first T20I match, India made 199/2 from their 20 overs,[15] going on to win the fixture by 62 runs.[16] India won the second T20I by seven wickets to win the series with a match to play.[17] India won the third and final T20I match by six wickets to win the series 3–0.[18]
The first Test of the series was the 300th to be played by Sri Lanka,[19] and it was also the 100th Test match for India's Virat Kohli.[20] In the Test, Ravindra Jadeja scored 175 not out and took nine wickets.[21] India went on to win the match inside three days[22] by an innings and 222 runs.[23]
Squads
Prior to the T20I matches, Deepak Chahar and Suryakumar Yadav were both ruled out India's squad due to a hamstring injury and a hairline fracture respectively.[28] Both players picked up their injuries during the third and final T20I match against the West Indies.[29] Sri Lanka's Wanindu Hasaranga was also ruled out of the T20I series after not recovering from COVID-19.[30]
After the first T20I match, Maheesh Theekshana and Shiran Fernando were both ruled out of Sri Lanka's squad for the remaining matches due to injuries.[31] Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana were replaced by Dhananjaya de Silva and Niroshan Dickwella in Sri Lanka's T20I squad.[32] In India's T20I team, Ruturaj Gaikwad was replaced by Mayank Agarwal for the remaining two matches.[33] India's Ishan Kishan was ruled out of the third T20I, after suffering a blow to the head in the second match.[34]
