The new head coach of the Indian cricket team, Gautam Gambhir, has reportedly asked the veteran trio of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Jasprit Bumrah to play the ODI series against Sri Lanka. All three stars who featured in the T20 World Cup squad of India were to be rested for the upcoming series against the neighboring country. However, Gambhir has other plans for the stars.
