August 13, 2015 13:28

Ind 1st inns: 255-3 (74 ovs) vs SL 183 | Scorecard

Kohli turns Prasad on the leg side for one to take his score to 98. The Sri Lankan pacer tries to tempt Dhawan with wide deliveries outside the off-stump but he offers no stroke for the remaining five deliveries.

In the next over, Kohli completes his century from 187 balls as he strokes a full delivery from Kaushal through the covers for a four. This is Kohli's 11th century in his 35th Test match and the fifth hundred in his last six Tests.

However, he is dismissed soon after as he attempts the sweep shot but misses the full delivery and is given out leg before wicket.

Kohli walks back after a good innings of 103 from 191 balls after he put on 227 runs for the third wicket with Dhawan to put India in control.
