SL Test Series: India need to get into Test groove

-->

After being busy in one-dayers and Twenty20s for almost three months, India will look to quickly get into the groove for the longer version of cricket as they take on Sri Lankan Board XI in a three-day warm-up match in Colombo from Friday. India, who last played a Test against South Africa at home in April, took advantage of a sunny day here and got into some rigorous practice to shift into the five-day mode ahead of the first match, beginning on June 23.

The match will be India’s only warm-up game before the three-Test series against the host beginning July 23.

India is likely to field their senior players for the match as many of them have not played for a while as they were not part of the recent Asia cup in Pakistan.
