IND vs SL: Ravichandran Ashwin's Tweet Goes Viral After Virat Kohli Smashes His 73rd International Century

Sri Lankan Cricket Team had won the toss & opted to bowl first at Guwahati in the 1st ODI. Rohit Sharma & Shubman Gill got the team to a flyer as the duo stitched a partnership of 143 runs. This time, a billion people witnessed the sheer brilliance of Virat Kohli as the dashing batter smashed his 45th ODI century and 73rd International ton.

Virat Kohli from ball one looked in complete control of the match. The batter smashed back to back a century as earlier in the 3rd ODI against Bangladesh, he had hit a terrific ton. Virat Kohli was quite keen on rotating the strike as the batter frustrated the bowlers.

Ravichandran Ashwin on Virat Kohli

Ravichandran Ashwin made an interesting tweet before Virat Kohli got to 3 figure mark. The spinner isn’t a part of the white ball leg tour which may be to manage his workload as he was a part of the 2-0 series victory against Bangladesh in the Tests.

Great Chance for India

The Men in Blue should not allow the Lankan batters to get a start as there’s nothing significant in the pitch. All eyes would be on Mohammad Shami as the speedster is making a comeback after a long time due to an injury. It would be interesting to see whether Umran Malik bowls in the power-play overs.

Sri Lanka needs to target power-play overs as they need to score around 80 runs as chasing 374 won’t be easy by any means. The openers need to lay the foundation as they would be well aware of the fact that India has only 2 spinners in their playing 11.
