The Indian team will begin their three Test series against Sri Lanka in Galle on July 26.
Virat Kohli's men enjoyed a great home season against South Africa, New Zealand, England and Australia.
But now they will face tough challenge away from home.
While Sri Lanka haven't really been in great form (they lost the ODI series at home to Zimbabwe and narrowly won the one-off Test against the minnows), their spinners could still pose a big threat to India.
Veteran spinner Rangana Herath is still taking wickets in Test cricket. Herath, in fact, took 11 wickets against Zimbabwe in the one-off Test.
The left-arm spinner will be especially delighted with the fact that the current crop of Indian batsmen, unlike their legendary predecessor, are not really the masters against spin bowling.
Kohli's team struggled to get the big ones against the modest bunch of Australian spinners in the home series last March.
So it will be interesting to see how Kohli's team perform against the skillful Sri Lankan spinners on those slow wickets.
There was a time when Muttiah Muralitharan, Sri Lanka's greatest cricketer ever and one of the greatest spinners in cricket history, feared Indian batsmen like Sachin Tendulkar, VVS Laxman, Virender Sehwag, Sourav Ganguly.
Those were the days when fans got to witness classic battles between legends like Tendulkar, Brian Lara, Muralitharan and Shane Warne.
So that brings a very interesting question to the mind: Who is the greatest batsman against spinners of all time.
