The 2nd test between India and Sri Lanka will take place at Kanpur on Nov 24th to 29th Nov - 2009. Sri Lanka started brilliantly in the first Test but were thwarted first by Rahul Dravid and then the pitch in Ahmedabad. Momentum is an over-rated word, though, and both teams will start afresh in Kanpur.

Wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik has been rushed to Kanpur after the Indian team management asked for a last minute back-up for MS Dhoni ahead of the second Test against Sri Lanka beginning on Tuesday. Dhoni reportedly hurt his finger during the Ahmedabad Test which ended in a dull draw last Friday.
Karthik, the Tamil Nadu captain, was in Dharamshala for the Ranji Trophy Super League match against Himachal Pradesh when he got the call on Sunday afternoon. He last played a Test for India in March, against New Zealand in Napier, after Dhoni opted out due to back spasms.
India : (probable) Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, VVS Laxman, Yuvraj Singh, MS Dhoni (capt/wk), Harbhajan Singh, Zaheer Khan, Ishant Sharma, Amit Mishra.
Sri Lanka: (probable) Tharanga Paranavitana, Tillakaratne Dilshan, Kumar Sangakkara (capt & wk), Mahela Jayawardene, Thilan Samaraweera, Angelo Mathews, Prasanna Jayawardene (wk), Nuwan Kulasekara/Dilhara Fernando, Chanaka Welegedara, Muttiah Muralitharan, Ajantha Mendis/Rangana Herath.
