IND vs SL Today's Match Playing 11 and Dream 11 changes- The Playing 11 in today's match could look very different and the dream 11 predictions could be altered accordingly as well because of injuries

Team India, fresh from their whitewash of West Indies in the recent T20I and ODI series will take on Sri Lanka in today's match at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Stadium in Lucknow. Today's match is very important in the sense that the Indian team will be without the services of a lot of its regular players while the Sri Lankan team will also be missing Wanindu Hasaranga, one of their trump cards. 

Thus, the Playing 11 in today's match could look very different and the dream 11 predictions could be altered accordingly as well 
 

Here's how the Playing 11 of the two teams could look like

India Predicted Playing 11

Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ishan Kishan (WK), Shreyas Iyer, Rohit Sharma (C), Sanju Samson, Venkatesh Iyer, Ravindra Jadeja, Harshal Patel, Ravi Bishnoi, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah
