The 15th season of IPL, the Mahakumbh of league cricket, is going to start from March 26. IPL 2022 teams like Sunrisers Hyderabad (SEH), Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Mumbai Indians (MI) and Kolkata Knight Riders in India’s 3-match T20I series (IND vs SL T20I Series, 2022) against Sri Lanka on 27 February (KKR) players performed well. In the T20 series against Sri Lanka, the Indian team’s constituent fast bowlers Bhuvaneshwar Kumar, Ravindra Jadeja, Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer were seen in strong status.
In the 3-match T20I series against Sri Lanka, four players from the Indian team played really well. Shreyas Iyer was awarded the ‘Player of the Series’ award in addition to ‘Man of the Match’. In all three matches of this series, Shreyas Iyer was not out for a half century and scored 204 runs in total in the series. In his new role of batting at number 5 for India, all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja also showed a great game. Bhuvaneshwar Kumar also appeared to be back in form and regularly picked up wickets in the powerplay.
1. Bhuvaneshwar Kumar
Sunrisers Hyderabad fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar took 3 wickets in two matches of the T20 series against Sri Lanka. He played a big role in winning India in the first match of this series. This deadly right-arm fast bowler showed an old sharp edge and did not allow the Sri Lankan batsmen to progress. It is worth noting that in the last tour of the Indian team to South Africa, his edge was completely blunt. He silenced the critics with his performance in the T20I series against Sri Lanka.
2. Ravindra Jadeja
Ravindra Jadeja, the great all-rounder of the Indian team, showed his comeback in both batting and bowling. While promoting Jadeja, he was sent to bat at number 5. He scored 70 runs in the 3-match series against Sri Lanka at a strike rate of 189.19. Jadeja’s strike rate as a batsman was at number two. He also took 2 wickets in 3 matches. The owners and members of IPL’s Yellow Army Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will be very happy with Jadeja’s return to form in this series against Sri Lanka.

3. Ishan Kishan
Indian team’s wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan made a tremendous comeback after a disappointing performance against the West Indies on the tour of India a few days ago. In the T20 series against Sri Lanka, Ishan Kishan scored a total of 105 runs in 2 matches. In the first match played in Lucknow, India had given a target of 199 runs to Sri Lanka. Ishan Kishan scored 89 runs in that match. In the second match played in Dharamsala, Ishan Kishan could not play the third and final match of the series due to a head injury during the game. Ishaan’s forceful batting must have made the owner and support staff of ‘Mumbai Indians’ MI happy.
4. Shreyas Iyer
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) captain Shreyas Iyer created a ruckus in the T20 series against Sri Lanka. Shreyas scored 204 runs in all 3 matches while not out and scored half-centuries in all three matches. Right arm batsman Shreyas Iyer batted at number three in the final match of the series and was awarded the ‘Player of the Series’ award. His excellent form against Sri Lanka must have brought peace to the owner of the IPL 2022 team ‘Kolkata Knight Riders’ (KKR).
