Fast and furious India ends Lanka tour with a blast

1 / 7

It has been a tour to remember for India skipper Virat Kohli. After impressing with the bat in the previous outings, Kohli was at his furious best as he fired a knock of 82 to help his side achieve a convincing seven-wicket win against Sri Lanka in the lone T20 at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Wednesday. With this, he became the second batsman, after Brendon McCullum, to register 1000 runs in T20I chases.
Manish Pandey gave support to Virat Kohli to ensure India chased down the mammoth total.
Team India's chief coach Ravi Shastri is a happy man as his side completes a clean sweep in the Island nation. He made it a point to acknowledge the efforts of Manish Pandey as Mahendra Singh Dhoni looked on.
It is a series that Sri Lanka would like to forget. After Virat Kohli hammered another blitzkrieg knock to guide India to a victory, Upul Tharanga made it a point to congratulate the India skipper.
Dilshan Munaweera slammed a knock of 53 to help Sri Lanka reach 170-7 at the R. Premadasa Stadium.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni was phenomenal behind the stumps in the limited-overs series. On Wednesday too, he made his presence felt.
Yuzvendra Chahal picked up three wickets even as Sri Lanka scored a big total.
