India's T-20 Tri-Nation Series Captain Rohit Sharma said that players need to be backed and supported to boost their confidence. "This backing should come from the management which gives the players the confidence," he said. He added that their strength must be exploited. Having faced Sri Lanka in 18 international matches this season (6 Tests, 8 ODIs and 4 T20Is) on home and away basis, another face-off can only add to the players as well as viewers' fatigue due to lack of context. However, for a bunch of youngsters, who will get to wear the India blues with as many as six top players being rested, would consider this a god-sent opportunity.
