BCCI shared pictures on Twitter and captioned it: "Time to hit the nets. Our first practice session under lights begins now."

India was supposed to take on the island nation on Tuesday, however the schedule has been revised due to Sri Lanka contingent members testing positive for COVID-19 after returning from the UK.

The ODI series is now starting on 18 July due to COVID-19 cases in the Sri Lankan camp. The three ODIs will now be played on July 18, 20 and 23. While the three T20Is will be held on July 25, 27, and 29. All the matches will be played at Colombo.
