India may field three spinners against Sri Lanka in upcoming Test series

India could field three spinners against Sri Lanka in the upcoming Test series, said captain Virat Kohli. The three-Test series is scheduled to start on August 12 in Sri Lanka where spinners get a lot of assistance from dry pitches. Kohli replaced Mahendra Singh Dhoni as Test captain when the latter quit Tests after India lost series to Australia in December last year. The prolific batsman will be leading India for the first time in a full-fledged series. India will reach Colombo on Monday and play a three-day warm up match at R Premadasa Stadium from August 06. The three-match series will conclude on September 01.
