Kasun Rajitha hops and tucks it to the leg side. The UltraEdge confirms that the bat is involved. Mohammed Siraj appeals for lbw, he continues to plead as the umpire gives it a long thought before raising the finger. The ball deflects off the pads and trickles onto the stumps. He starts by saying that it is just a by product of the intent he has. Mohammed Siraj completed his quota of 10 overs in the 21st over but could not take a fi-fer this time around, but he managed to single-handedly take down the Sri Lanka side here. India have completed the whitewash here with a comprehensive win in the final and third ODI by 317 runs. Mohammad Shami leaked a few runs in his first two overs, but Mohammed Siraj took care of the bowling attack from the other end, as he struck twice in his first two overs to put Sri Lanka on the back foot instantly.

Rohit Sharma, the victorious skipper, says that it was a great series and there were a lot of positives throughout the series. Rohit Sharma is handed the trophy, who passes it on to Mohammed Siraj and asks the seamer to begin the celebrations.

Virat Kohli scored his 10th century against Sri Lanka and 21st century at home in ODIs as he leaves behind two of Sachin Tendulkar's records.

This was Kohli’s 10th century against Sri Lanka, surpassing Sachin’s record of 9 centuries against Australia and also his own record of as many centuries against West Indies. He also breached another of Sachin’s records of most centuries against a single opponent. Popular gadgets including laptop, tablet and mobile specifications, features, prices, comparison. In Sunday’s game, Kohli eventually scored 110-ball 166*. This was Virat Kohli’s 46th century and is now just three more away from Sachin’s overall ODI centuries record of 49. This was also Kohli’s third century in the last four ODI innings as the 34-year-old earlier scored a century in the final ODI against Bangladesh in December 2022 before slamming another in Guwahati.

Gill and Kohli propelled India to 390/5 and it was followed by a clinical bowling performance led by Siraj that wrapped the tourists up for merely 73 runs.

Mohammad Shami and Kuldeep Yadav also chipped in with two wickets apiece to finish the job with the ball for India.

It is true that there is an abundance of cricket being played across different formats, but the lack of interest in a match involving the Indian team is still disappointing. He expressed his sadness that people were not showing interest in a home match involving the Indian cricket team.

BIGGEST-EVER ODI WIN! Siraj cannot get a five-fer even as there was some manufactured drama late in his spell with a review. But the innings is wrapped up ...

A wicket finally for Sri Lanka, but India have a strong base to build from already. They'd be hoping to mount a better challenge with the bat to avoid a clean sweep. The match is a dead rubber with India having already clinched the series, but there could be yet some moves that hint at what the larger goal is. The strength is the weakness too. Hasaranga now is done in by that and the offstump is pegged back. It's a classical delivery, that spins in and shoots through the bat-pad gap to hit the stumps. But he gets there as soon as the match resumes. Shami jogs up to bowl some gentle deliveries off the last two balls in a bid to give Siraj a chance to pick up his five-fer! This time he edges behind and India have Gill at a very wide slip. Karunaratne had defended a ball back and held his pose when Siraj threw down the stumps. There is a bit of inward movement with the ball also skidding on. The concussion substitute Wellalage hits one straight to point and that's the eighth down!

Virat Kohli has the most number of centuries, most player of the match, and most player of the series awards against Sri Lanka.

4 – Mohammed Siraj’s four wickets is the joint most for an Indian bowler in the first 10 overs of an ODI. 8 – Another interesting feat is the most number of sixes hit by Kohli in an ODI. India surpassed New Zealand’s record of a 290-run win against Ireland in 2008. This was also India’s 10th consecutive bilateral series win against Sri Lanka. Popular gadgets including laptop, tablet and mobile specifications, features, prices, comparison. He now has the most number of centuries against a single opponent in ODI Cricket. An amazing showcase of talent and hard work, as we win two series in two weeks. For Sri Lanka, a series win in any format of the game in India will still be elusive. 26 – Sri Lanka have played 26 bilateral series against India in India but failed to win one. Best wishes to the entire team, and kudos to [@imVkohli] [@ShubmanGill]for their performances! Tendulkar had 20 centuries in India. Virat Kohli has the most number of centuries, most player of the match, and most player of the series awards against Sri Lanka.

20.6 Siraj to Rajitha, no run, good review and Rajitha denies Siraj a fifer! Imagine playing a forward defence back to the bowler and then getting run out for not having your foot back in the crease. Even if the target was improbable, they could have all tried to put up a fight but that was not to be. He is a rare talent, the way he has come up over the last few years is good to see. The result was a foregone conclusion but what was shocking was the meek surrender from the Lankan batters. Mindset is always to help the team win, bat for as long as possible and if you do that, you end up making a difference. We'll get to the drawing board quickly (for the next series) and see how the pitch is, then decide how the combinations will be. He has a few tricks up his sleeves which he is working on and it's there to see. A clinical series win for the hosts and they will hope to keep the momentum going with the upcoming ODI assignments as well. We bowled well, got wickets when we needed and the batters throughout the series piling on the runs was good to watch. Rohit and co will want to sort things out with the World Cup around the corner. Rohit Sharma is given the trophy and he quickly hands it over to the juniors in the side.

India won the series 3-0. Skipper Rohit Sharma (42 off 49) and Shubman Gill (116 off 97) shared a fluent 95-run opening partnership before Virat Kohli (166 not out off 110) propelled India to a daunting 390 for five with his 74th international hundred and 46th in the 50-over format. Centuries from Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill lit up the dead rubber, as India annihilated a clueless Sri Lanka with a record 317-run win in the third ODI to sweep the series.

India vs Sri Lanka: Virat Kohli brought up his 74th international ton by scoring 166 runs in the 3rd ODI. IANS. Published: 16 Jan 2023, 10:40 AM IST.

The outswinger has been working well and I try to slip in the wobble-seam delivery. But the way Siraj has come in and done with the new ball has been fantastic. Ever since I came back from the break, I am feeling good and I don't have desperation to get to a milestone," Kohli said in the post-match presentation ceremony. Today I was happy to be batting out there and in that space, I end up playing good cricket. I have played for the right reasons and that has helped. In his third century in the last four ODI innings, Kohli hit 13 fours and eight sixes, feasting on a hapless bowling attack.

In 259 ODI innings, Virat Kohli has now scored 12754 runs at an average of 58.2 and at a strike rate of 93.7.

With his unbeaten ton, Kohli went past the Sri Lankan legend to become the fifth-highest run-getter in one-day international history. Rohit was dismissed in the 16th over and then Kohli came out to bat. This was Kohli's tenth ODI ton against Sri Lanka. This is India’s biggest win (in terms of runs) in ODI ever. Riding high on Kohli's batting effort, India posted a mammoth total of 90/5 in their allotted 50 overs. Rohit and Shubman Gill provided a solid start to India and added 95 runs for the first wicket.

Defending 390, India bowled the visitors out for 73 to complete a 3-0 series whitewash.

Catches kept going down, balls kept getting fumbled, loose balls kept arriving, and Kohli went from zero sixes in the first 40 overs to eight by the end of the innings, the Eventually he got an lbw decision in his favour with the last ball of his allotment of 10, but Rajitha had inside-edged it, and reviewed successfully. And once Kohli is fresh and set in the death overs, the pressure on the fielding side is extreme. That the pitch had become even slower and more difficult to score off was apparent in the way Shreyas Iyer struggled for timing. A brief lull was then broken with two sixes and a four from Rohit in the 10th over, bowled by Kasun Rajitha. During his hundred in the first ODI, Kohli seemed to run out of juice towards the end. He took 34 balls to get the 48 runs needed for his hundred while Kohli settled into an upgraded version of the already efficient anchor he was: scoring at more than a run a ball without taking any risks. Kohli walked in, and cover-drove the second ball he faced for four. After the slow start, Gill followed a Rohit six with four consecutive fours in the sixth over, bowled by Lahiru Kumara. [Virat Kohli](https://www.espncricinfo.com/player/virat-kohli-253802)and [Shubman Gill](https://www.espncricinfo.com/player/shubman-gill-1070173)powered India to 390 on a slow and seemingly lifeless track before the ball started hooping around under lights. The lack of depth in the Sri Lanka bowling showed, which meant the batters could afford to not go hard against Wanindu Hasaranga. In the home stretch, he turned into a sprinter.
