New Delhi: Senior batsman Shikhar Dhawan was on Thursday named captain of a second-string Indian side which includes a host of IPL performers for the limited-overs series in Sri Lanka next month.

The final two ODI matches will be played on July 16 and 18 followed by the three T20 games on July 21, 23, and 25.
