LUNCH - DAY 1

India 134-0 (27 ovs) vs SL | Scorecard

The session belonged to India as they reach 134 for no loss in 27 overs, scoring at nearly five runs per over, after electing to bat on a good wicket.

Dhawan dominated from the start to smash 64 from 66 balls, while Rahul was solid at the other end to hit 67 from 97 balls as he hit a world record seven half-century in a row.

None of the Sri Lankan bowlers managed to make any sort of impression as India's openers found run scoring quite easy in the morning session.

Like has been the case in the first two matches, India once again look to run away with the match with a huge first innings total.
