An authoritative Virat Kohli headlined India's utterly dominant performance with his 45th ODI hundred as Team India beat Sri Lanka by 67 runs in the first of the three-match series. Asked to bat first, India rode former skipper Kohli's 87-ball 113 and fluent half-centuries from his successor Rohit Sharma (83) and Shubman Gill (70) to rake up an imposing 373 for seven in their allotted quota of overs on a batting-friendly strip. In reply, the Sri Lankans were never in the hunt and ended at 306 for eight in 50 overs to hand the hosts a 1-0 lead in the rubber. After opener Pathum Nissanka fell for 72, visiting captain Dasun Shanaka waged a lone battle and produced a counterattacking century, even as the others failed to put up any resistance. The focus now shifts to Eden Gardens, Kolkata for the second ODI.
