Team India's biggest supporter, Sudhir Chaudhary, also known as Sudhir Kumar Gautam's poor financial condition was not a hindrance when it came to footing the expenses for his Sri Lankan counterpart Gayan Senanayaka for the three Tests, three ODIs and three T20Is in India. This is a return gesture from Sudhir after Gayan sponsored his Sri Lanka trips on four occasions.
