Pallekele, August 26: Indian fielding coach R Sridhar said on Saturday (August 26) the team would not be deterred by the middle-order collapse in the second ODI against Sri Lanka, and would continue with experimentation.
India lead the five-match series 2-0 with the third ODI to be played here on Sunday (August 27).
"The way we look at every game is that we take something into the next game and the remaining part of the series. I think the way the last game shaped up was a wonderful learning curve for us," Sridhar said.
"Even before the series started, we all knew that there was going to be some experiments from us going ahead over the next 18 months. It has been a great learning."
India recovered from a precarious 131 for seven to record only their second win at the Pallekele International Cricket ground.
"Akila Dananjaya bowled brilliantly in the last game. We take that forward, and we'll make sure we won't repeat the same mistakes going forward. We wanted give the other players a hit because Rahul hadn't batted in the middle in a one-day game so we wanted to give him that opportunity. It was just an experiment. (But) It won't stop.
"We will try out different players in different slots to get the best exposure to get the best out of each player. That's the endeavour of the team management," he added.
Sridhar said Hardik Pandya has recovered sufficiently from cramps and is available for selection for the next game.
"On Thursday, Hardik Pandya was cramping. He's perfectly alright now. He should be ready for the next game," Sridhar said.
