India are scheduled to play two-match Test series against Sri Lanka after ensuring a series win in T20Is and Mohali Test will be 100th game of his red-ball career for Virat Kohli. Mohali Test will be played behind closed doors due to Covid-19 restrictions and India will look forward to win series.

India are scheduled to play a two-match Test series against Sri Lanka starting from March 4 after ensuring a series win in T20Is. The first Test of the series will be played in Mohali and will be played behind closed doors due to Covid-19 restrictions. The Test will be the 100th game of the red-ball career for Virat Kohli.

There is a lot of expectation about Kohli’s milestone match but the decision to not allow spectators has not gone down well with a section of fans. PCA treasurer RP Singla on Saturday said that the decision has been taken in accordance with a directive from the BCCI. 

“Yes, apart from the people, who are on duty for the Test match, we are not allowing any general spectators as per the directive of BCCI,” Singla told news agency PTI.

“Still there are fresh COVID cases emerging in and around Mohali, so it’s better we take all safety protocols. Obviously, the fans miss out because an international match at Mohali is happening after almost three years.”
