India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is excited to be back with the national side after recovering from injury and is looking forward to playing in the upcoming T20I and Test series against Sri Lanka.

After missing the Test and ODI series in South Africa and the home limited-overs contest against West Indies, Jadeja has returned to the Indian limited-overs set-up having recovered from the injury that kept him on the sidelines.
