India prepares for spin-heavy Tests against Sri Lanka in Galle and Colombo

India faces Sri Lanka in a two-Test series starting soon in Galle and Colombo, where pitches are expected to favor spin. The Indian batting lineup has shown vulnerability against spin in recent matches, suffering defeats to New Zealand and South Africa. With key players like Jasprit Bumrah sidelined due to injury, India’s bowling attack, led by Mohammed Siraj, faces significant pressure. Sri Lanka aims to exploit these weaknesses at home, making spin a central factor in the series.
