Even the change of formats didn’t help Sri Lanka much, as Indian whitewashed them once again on the tour. The Indians clinched the ODI series 5-0 with a clinical 6-wicket win in the 5th ODI in Colombo.

Now the Lankan Lions have a T20 game left to salvage something out of this tour. It turned out to be an allround effort from the Indian team right from the Test to the one-dayers. India won the Test series 3-0.

“It is quite amazing to win the series 5-0,” Virat Kohli said. “We always thought the limited overs were going to be much more challenging but credit to the guys. Jassi has been outstanding, spinners has been outstanding.”

“Hardik chipping in. We have played some good cricket,” he added. “The talk was about not having won more than 3 games in a row in limited overs. But now we have 5. In fact, 6. We won one in West Indies as well.”

Meanwhile, the Indian captain Kohli struck his 30th ODI century in Colombo. Bhuvneshwar Kumar bowled brilliantly and took a fifer, while Jasprit Bumrah struck twice to take his tally to 15 in the series.

“I was not among wickets in the first few matches. But I was happy with the way I bowled today,” Bhuvneshwar insisted. “We knew they were not strong against slower balls. I did not want to prove anything.
