The Indian team will undergo two training camps, spread over five days each, before leaving for Sri Lanka in August for the triangular series.

"The team would have a general conditioning camp and, after a break during which they can be back home with their families, would undergo a cricket specific camp. Each camp would last for five days each," Niranjan Shah, the Indian Board secretary said.

Shah added that the squad would be chosen after July 15 and the camps would be held either in Chennai or Bangalore as the other parts of the country would be experiencing monsoon.

India is slated to take part in a tri-series, featuring hosts Sri Lanka and South Africa, from August 14 to 29. The team will reach Sri Lanka on August 10 and take on Sri Lanka in their opening encounter on August 16 at Dambulla.
