Rohit Sharma: It was a great series for us. Lots of positives. We bowled well, got wickets when we needed and the batters throughout the series piling on the runs was good to watch. Good to see how he (Siraj) was bowling and he deserved all those slips. He is a rare talent, the way he has come up over the last few years is good to see. He has come from strength to strength and that's really good for Indian cricket. We tried all sort of things (to get his fifer) but it didn't happen unfortunately. But the four wickets are all his and fifers will come. He has a few tricks up his sleeves which he is working on and it's there to see. We'll get to the drawing board quickly (for the next series) and see how the pitch is, then decide how the combinations will be. They (NZ) are coming off a series win in Pakistan, so it won't be an easy task at all.

India won by 317 runs.

Virat Kohli (POTM & POTS): I have no idea (about the MoS awards he has won). For me, it's just a byproduct of the intent I have, mindset that I play with. Mindset is always to help the team win, bat for as long as possible and if you do that, you end up making a difference. I have always played for the right reasons, help the team as much as possible. It is just intent, playing for the right reasons. Ever since I came back from the long break, I have been feeling good. I don't have that desperation to get to a milestone. I am just enjoying my batting, being in a space where I can relax. Today as well, I was just happy to be out there batting. I am in a nice space right now and want this to continue. Shami has always been there for us but the way Siraj has come up has been outstanding. He has taken the maximum number of wickets in the powerplay, which was an issue for us early. He is always making the batters think, which is a great sign for us going into the World Cup.

Mohammed Siraj: It would have been my first five-wicket haul. It tried hard, but it was just not meant to be. We are destined to get whatever is written in the fortunes. My rhythm has been good for some time. The outswinger is coming out well. But the scrambled seam is the real wicket-taking ball. The batters have the outswinger in mind and I slip in the scrambled seam delivery. Out captain put in efforts (by bowling Shreyas Iyer at the other end), but it didn't happen. It is good to take four wickets on this track."

Dasun Shanaka: It's disappointing. It's not the game we wanted. It happens at times, but we have to learn to manage the start. (On what went wrong) Probably the bowling and the batting both. The bowlers need to learn to pick wickets on these tracks and the batters need to learn to score runs. Playing positive cricket is most important. (The) Intent was not there from the start. If there was intent, the bowling would have been different. I would like to congratulate the Indian team for their performance.

Match Summary

Indian batting mainstay Virat Kohli was unbeaten on 166, while Shubman Gill (116) recorded his second century of the day as India posted 390/5.

India were quick to fold up the Sri Lankan innings as Siraj and Shami sent five of their batters back in the dugout in powerplay. Nuwanindu Fernando played some delightful shots but didn't last for a long against Siraj.

Kuldeep Yadav later dismissed Dasun Shanaka to pave the way for India to quickly wrap the innings. The last pair of Kasun Rajitha and Lahiru Kumara toyed with the Indian bowlers for a few boundaried before Kuldeep cleaned up Kumara.

India whitewash Sri Lanka with a thrashing 317-run victory.

Kuldeep gets Kumara after a few hits

Kumara hit Kuldeep Yadav over his head for a boundary. The second one against him.

Kuldeep had the last laugh as he cleaned up the Sri Lankan pacer with a flighted delivery. That was eventually the last wicket for Sri Lanka as Ashen Bandara was unavailable to bat after colliding with Jeffrey Vandersay during the field. That's a wrap for India.

Lahiru Kumara 9 (19 balls; two fours)

SL 73/9 (22 overs) Nuwanidu Fernando 19; Mohammed Siraj 4/32

Rajitha survives LBW decision

Four!!! Rajitha hits the ball over the slip region after finiding the edge.

The batter was given out for LBW in the final delivery of the same over. A DRS helped him to turn the decision in his favour as there was a spike involved in the bat.

SL 69/8 (21 overs) Nuwanidu Fernando 19; Mohammed Siraj 4/32

Kumara pulls for a boundary

Four!!! Lahiru Kumara pulled Kuldeep Yadav over mid-wicket for a boundary. Something for him tonight.

SL 61/8 (20 overs) Nuwanidu Fernando 19; Mohammed Siraj 4/24

Boundary for Sri Lanka

Four!!! Kasun Rajitha gets an inside edge off Siraj's the fuller delivery. It goes past the stumps towards fine leg boundary.

SL 55/8 (17 overs) Nuwanidu Fernando 19; Mohammed Siraj 4/24

Wellalage departs

Shami ends Sri Lanka's innings by dismissing their last recognised batter. However, the tail can anyday frustrate the opposition.

Wellalage chipped toward Suryakumar Yadav at point. Eighth wicket for India and they are just moments away from wrapping the game.

Dunith Wellalage 3 (13 balls) c Suryakumar Yadav b Mohammed Shami

Kuldeep bowls Shanaka

A tossed up delivery outside the off-stump turned back sharply to uproot the middle stump of the Sri Lanka skipper. Kudeep got Shanaka for the second time in as many innings.

Dasun Shanaka 11 (26; two fours) b Kuldeep Yadav

Shanaka wields his bat

Four!!! Not much you will get to see in this innings but if Shanaka prolongs his innings than it's possible. Some width offered by Kuldeep Yadav and Shanaka moves back to cut it behind the square for a four.

SL 46/6 (13 overs) Nuwanidu Fernando 19; Mohammed Siraj 4/18

A shocking run out

Chamika Karunaratne has been stunned here by Siraj. Karunaratne put up a solid defence against Siraj. The bowler picks the ball and directs it straight to the stumps. After continuous checking from the TV umpire, Karunaratne was given out as he was outside the crease after playing the shot. A runout in unfashionable manner for the batter and great presence of mind for the bowler.

Chamika Karunaratne 1 (6 balls) run out Mohammed Siraj

Siraj has his fourth

No power-hitting class from Hasaranga this time as Siraj shields his spin teammates. After bowling three outswingers, Siraj bowled the off-cutter to breach the defences of Hasaranga. He was late in bringing his bat down. Half of the Sri Lanka bating is back into the dugout.

Wanindu Hasaranga 1 (7 balls) b Mohammed Siraj

Siraj ends young Nuwanidu's stay

Siraj has his man. If anyone looked more stronger against the Indian pacer then it was Nuwanidu Fernando. After getting smashed for three fours, Siraj found the edge of the batter that crashed on to the stumps. A brilliant cameo from Nuwanidu comes to a halt.

Nuwanidu Fernando 19 (27 balls; 4 boundaries)

Shami sends back Charith Asalanka

A soft dismissal for Sri Lanka. Shami kept it wide and short as Asalanka puched it at backward point for Axar Patel to pouch a simple catch. Sri Lanka are three down now.

Charith Asalanka 1 (4 balls) c Axar Patel b Mohammed Shami

Nuwanidu unmoved by Siraj's variations

Nuwanidu Fernando has a great temparament. The 23-year-old is hitting boundaries against a bowler who is imposing fear in the minds of the opponents. A classic cover drive was a treat to watch for the spectators as well Siraj. Back to back fours for the youngster.

SL 31/2 (6 overs) Nuwanidu Fernando 19; Mohammed Siraj 2/15

Siraj strikes second

A length ball outside the off stump was chased by Mendis and a edge was carried by wicketkeeper KL Rahul.

Kusal Mendis 4 (7 balls; one four) c KL Rahul b Mohammed Siraj

Siraj draws the first blood

Siraj continues his brilliance with the ball in the powerplay overs this series. Avishka edged one to the slip region, where Shubman Gill took a low catch to complete the dismissal.

Avishka Fernando 1 (4 balls) c Shubman Gill b Mohammed Siraj

IND 390/5 (50 overs) Virat Kohli 166*; Kasun Rajitha 2/81

IND 332/2 (45 overs) Virat Kohli 126; Kasun Rajitha 1/53

What a shot.

Kohli charged down the track to pick the slower one from Rajitha. Slammed it way behind to the long-on stands. A glimpse of MSD playing the helicopter shot with the way Kohli panned it out.

Hundred for Virat Kohli

Century No.46 in ODIs for India's run-machine. He completed the single just after Sri Lankan players were hit with injuries. Kohli brought the usual celebrations that amazed the crowd. third century in his last four innings and 74th in international cricket.

Sri Lanka hit with a couple of injuries

Virat Kohli smashed a four. But two fielders, Jeffrey Vandersay and Ashen Bandara collided with each other while attempting to stop the boundary. Both the fielders were down after the ball touched the ropes. The Sri Lankan physio was out there and moments later even the Indian team's medical physio. Bandara was taken off on a stretcher. Vandersay had a brace around his neck after attaining consciousness. Bandara's knee went hit Vandersay's stomach. It was horrifying for Sri Lanka as Dasun Shanaka was seen talkinh to Virat Kohli.

Kohli just clears the ropes

Six!!! King Kohli charged down the track and was almost caught by the long-on as the ball sailed over the head of Vandersay.

IND 285/2 (41 overs) Shubman Gill 116; Chamika Karunaratne 1/27

Shreyas Iyer attacks

Iyer attempted to pull against Chamika Karunaratne's short ball but toe-ended the shot behind the keeper for a four.

IND 260/2 (38 overs) Shubman Gill 116; Chamika Karunaratne 1/27

Magnificent Kohli

Four!!! Kohli smashed it wide of cover and mid-off to score a boundary off Chamika Karunaratne's floated ball. This is just the Kohli that loves the format and enjoys every moment of it.

IND 235/2 (35 overs) Shubman Gill 116; Chamika Karunaratne 1/20

Rajitha ends Shubman Gill's impressive innings

Kasun Rajitha bowled a good length and kept it low. Gill wanted to play a hoick but missed the off-cutter. Gill's brilliant run comes to halt not before a tap from Virat Kohli.

IND 202/1 (31 overs) Shubman Gill 100; Chamika Karunaratne 1/9

Nuwanidu Fenanndo bowls first over in international cricket

Shubman Gill hammered a four and a six on the final two balls against Nuwanidu, who bowled his first over in ODIs. 13 runs coming from that over as Gill moved into nineties.

IND: 187/1 (29 overs) Shubman Gill 94; Chamika Karunaratne 1/9

Gill hits Shanaka for a boundary

Four!!! Gill used the front foot well and swatted to push one wide of long-off for a four.

SL Review

Wanindu Hasaranga has asked captain Dasun Shanaka to review the LBW appeal against Sri Lanka. Shubman Gill had a smile on his face the moment Sri Lanka went for the review. The reason for that smile was a bit of glove was involved before the ball struck the bats. Gill stays forward and Sri Lanka lose their review.

Shubman Gill goes big

Six!!! First of the day from Gill's blade. The opener bent low to unveil the slogsweep against Vandersay's flighted delivery. The ball went way over deep mid-wicket.

IND 136/1 (21 overs) Shubman Gill 60; Chamika Karunaratne 1/9

Fifty for Shubman Gill

Shubman Gill picked a single on the final ball of the 19th over and reached sixth ODI fifty in 18 innings. Gill started well with plundeting fours against Rajitha and Kumara.

IND 118/1 (19 overs) Shubman Gill 50; Chamika Karunaratne 1/9

Kohli ticks well

Virat Kohli seems to have settled right from the dugout itself. No way he wants to take time to settle. Smashed Karunaratne for a four with the open face of his bat on facing the second ball. He clubbed two more off Jeffrey Vandersay in the next over.

IND 111/1 (17 overs) Shubman Gill 46; Chamika Karunaratne 1/7

Karunaratne ends Rohit's knock

Chamika Karunaratne does the job for Sri Lanka. Very unexpected wicket as Rohit Sharma was eyeing for the big score. Played a pull with flat Avishka Fernando takes the catch at deep backward square to end the partnership.

Rohit Sharma 42 (49 balls; two fours and three sixes)

Sri Lanka bowls tightly

It has been five overs and not a single boundary is conceded. Vandersay used some bounce and tossed the rest but Indian openers were not in their arch to pick him. Three runs coming of the 15th over.

IND 91/0 (15 overs) Shubman Gill 45, Rohit Sharma 42

Karunaratne starts well with just giving two runs and using the mixed variations to test the openers.

IND 88/0 (14 overs) Shubman Gill 44, Rohit Sharma 40

Sri Lanka's spin plan was for very short as they hand the ball to medium pacer Chamika Katunaratne. Indian openers would be just patient here rather than playing a unsolicited shot.

That's time as Indian openers face spin challenge from both ends. Jeffrey Vandersay joins Hasaranga and this could be the moment fot Sri Lanka to not only stall runs but grab some few wickets.

Rohit takes on Rajitha

Six!!! Not once but twice did the Indian skipper dispatched the ball into the stands on successive ocassions off Rajitha. A pull followed by am extraordinary pose were the highlights of the two sixes before closing the over with a boundary.

IND 75/0 (10 overs) Rohit Sharma 36, Shubman Gill 35

Wanindu Hasaranga into the attack

Shanaka had to look for his trusted bowler after Indian openers cracked the code against the new-ball bowlers. Hasaranga did nothing but just eased on the scoring rate for an over. Three runs conceded after a 23-run over.

IND 45/0 (7 overs) Shubman Gill 30; Rohit Sharma 11

An expensive over

Rohit Sharma joined his partner to clear the ropes. Rohit used his wily wrists to flick the full delivery by Lahiru Kumara for a six. Shubman Gill smashed four boundaries in the final four balls as India shifted the momentum. 23 runs coming from the sixth over.

IND 42/0 (6 overs) Shubman Gill 29, Rohit Sharma 9
