In Pics: Shikhar Dhawan-led Indian team arrives in Colombo for Sri Lanka series

The Shikhar Dhawan-led Indian white-ball squad arrived in Sri Lanka on Monday. India and Sri Lanka will lock horns in three ODIs and as many T20Is, beginning July 13. Rahul Dravid is India's head coach for the tour.

The Men in Blue were placed in three-day room quarantine at the Taj Samudra Hotel immediately on arrival.

According to a statement from SLC, the team will be in room quarantine at Taj Samudra from June 29 to July 1. They will then be allowed to practice within quarantine from July 2 to 4.

From July 5, they will be out of quarantine but stay inside the bio-bubble and practice or rest as per the team management's wish.

The likes of Sanju Samson, Ishan Kishan, and Suryakumar Yadav are in the white-ball squad and many more youngsters are eyeing a debut for India in the Sri Lanka series.

Dravid on Sunday said he hopes the white-ball squad is able to give good performances so that they are able to knock the doors of selectors for a call-up for the T20 World Cup which is set to be played later this year.
