Commentary
India started their ODI campaign in the world cup year on a dominant note as they registered an emphatic 67-run win over Sri Lanka in Guwahati.
Chasing an improbable 374-run target Sri Lanka managed to post 306 for the loss of 8 wickets in the stipulated 50 overs.
Their skipper Dasun Shanaka's gritty hundred went in vain as he failed to take his team home and couldn't find much support from the other end in the middle-order.
He, however, shared a century stand with tail-ender Kasun Rajitha - who contributed 9 runs in the unbeaten partnership of 100 for the ninth wicket.
For India, Umran Malik was the pick of the bowlers and returned with a three-for. Mohammed Siraj - who provided a couple of early breakthroughs - returned with 2/30 from his 7 overs.
However, the day was headlined by India's batting mainstay Virat Kohli who slammed his ODI career's 45th ton and shattered several records.
Capitalising on the 143-run opening stand between captain Rohit Sharma (83) and Shubman Gill (70), Kohli kept forging partnerships with the middle-order batters and scored 113 off 87 balls. It was Kohli's knock which helped the Men in Blue post a mammoth 373 for 7 after being put in to bat first.
With this win, Rohit Sharma and his band take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series and the bandwagon now moves to Kolkata where the second match will be played.
SIX! Mohammed Shami to Dasun Shanaka. Length ball, off stump on the front foot Slog, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. What a way to end the innings! India win the match by 67 runs and lead the series 1-0. Shanaka top-scored with an unbeaten 108. Umran Malik picked up three wickets. Virat Kohli is the Player of the Match. Cheers.
