Former England player Ian Bell was named Tuesday as Sri Lanka's batting coach for the three-match Test series against England. Sri Lanka Cricket said the 42-year-old former right-hand batter was hired to draw on his experience of playing 118 Tests for England.

"We believe his inputs will help our team in this crucial tour." Sri Lanka appointed former skipper Sanath Jayasuriya last month to replace head coach Chris Silverwood, who quit following the country's early exit from the T20 World Cup.

Apart from his mouth-watering tally, Rohit is a two-time ICC T20 World Cup (2007 and 2024) and ICC Champions Trophy winner. He also holds the record for most sixes in the shortest format.
