SL vs IND-1st ODI- India 373 for 7 (Kohli 113, Rohit 83, Gill 70, Rajitha 3-88) beat Sri Lanka 306 for 8 (Shanaka 108*, Nissanka 72, Malik 3-57, Siraj 2-30) by 67 runs

India and Sri Lanka will clash for the fifth time at the Eden Gardens, where the hosts have won three such clashes and the visitors won the infamous World Cup semifinal meeting in 1996. One match has so far ended in No Result.

One of the meetings between the two at the Eden Gardens saw records being broken as a young Rohit Sharma went on to register the highest individual score in ODIs (264) and also helped the team breach 400-mark for the first time at the venue back in 2014.

The Eden Gardens has in fact hosted 30 ODI matches so far, but the venue last hosted an ODI nearly six years ago when Australia toured India in 2017. South Africa were scheduled to play an ODI in 2020, but the match was cancelled due to the COVID pandemic.
