Rohit and Gill gave a great start
Electing to bat first after losing the toss, the Indian team got off to a great start. The opening pair of Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill added 75 runs in the powerplay. Even after this, both remained frozen and shared a 143-run partnership for the first wicket. Shubman Gill got out after scoring 70 runs. After this Rohit Sharma also got out after scoring 83 runs. Virat, who came in at number three, handled one end, but wickets kept falling at the other end. Shreyas Iyer 28, Lokesh Rahul 39 and Hardik Pandya were dismissed after scoring 14 runs. Akshar Patel, who did wonders with the bat in T20, was also dismissed after scoring nine runs.


Virat’s brilliant century
Virat Kohli, who came to bat in the 20th over, batted brilliantly in this match and scored 113 runs in 87 balls. 12 fours and a six came out of his bat. When Kohli came to bat, India’s score was 143 runs. At the same time, when Kohli went to the pavilion, the Indian team had scored 364 runs. Kohli completed the 45th century of his ODI career in this match. This was his second consecutive century in ODIs. Earlier, he had also scored a century against Bangladesh.

India missed out on scoring 400 runs
India had made a great start in this match and at one point it seemed that Team India would score more than 400. India had scored 329 runs for four wickets in 44 overs. Virat and Hardik were at the crease. In such a situation, the score of 400 was not very difficult for India, but Hardik, Akshar and finally Virat also got out at the wrong time. Shami and Siraj played the last 10 balls of the match. For this reason, the Indian team could not score 400.

All Sri Lankan bowlers proved to be ineffective in this match. Kasoon Rajita definitely got three wickets, but he gave away 88 runs in 10 overs. Apart from him, Madushanka, Karunaratne, Shanaka and Dhananjay D’Silva got one wicket each, but the economy rate of all Sri Lankan bowlers was more than six.

Pathum Nishanka did play an inning of 72 runs in 80 balls, but at the other end, Avishka Fernando was dismissed for five, Kushal Mendis zero, Charith Asalanka 23 and Dhananjay D’Silva scored 47 runs.

Half of the Sri Lankan team had returned to the pavilion after scoring 161 runs. At this time Dasun Shanaka came to bat and batted at one end. However, Shanaka also did not get any support at the other end. Wanindu Hasaranga 16, Dunith Velalge zero, Chamika Karunaratne got out after scoring 14 runs. Shanaka was stuck at one end and he played an innings of 108 runs in 88 balls, but could not win his team.
