World Champions India: World Champions India could play additional T20Is in Sri Lanka and Ireland as the team prepares for a packed international schedule over the next 12 months, said a report. The proposed matches would come alongside a series of already scheduled bilateral tours and tournaments.

According to a report by Cricbuzz, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is considering adding three T20Is to India’s upcoming tour of Sri Lanka. The matches are likely to take place before the two Tests that are already part of the World Test Championship (WTC) and could be scheduled in July-August.

The additional T20Is have reportedly been proposed by Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) as part of a fundraising initiative to support flood relief efforts in the island nation. Sri Lanka was severely affected by Cyclone Ditwah last November, which caused widespread damage and displacement across several regions.
