THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Kohli's 46th ODI ton and a 116 by Shubman Gill powered India to 390-5. Mohammed Siraj then returned impressive figures of 4-32 as SL were bowled out for 72. Kohli is now three only tons short of Sachin Tendulkar's record of most ODI hundreds.
His sizzling 166* and Gill's 116 set up world record 317-run win in the third ODI against hapless Sri Lanka for a 3-0 series sweep
Virat Kohli showed signs he was regaining his touch towards the latter part of last year. The four and six off Haris Rauf to change the course of the game against Pakistan at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in the T20 World Cup in October indicated that the feel was back in the hands. He then ended the year on a high with an ODI hundred against Bangladesh and started the new year with a century against Sri Lanka at Guwahati.
On Sunday at the Greenfield International Stadium here, he issued a clear warning that 2023 could be his year by smashing an unbeaten 166 in the third ODI against Sri Lanka. For the current generation's best batter in 50 overs cricket, it has the makings of a dream script because the ODI World Cup is at home.
