India vs Sri Lanka 1st Test Live Score: Rohit Sharma Opts To Bat, Picks Three Spinners In Virat Kohli's 100th Test

IND vs SL 1st Test Day 1 Live Score: India won the toss and elected to bat in the first Test against Sri Lanka in Mohali today. Rohit Sharma begins his journey as India's red-ball captain. The limelight will also firmly be on Virat Kohli, who is set to play his 100th Test match. India have been in stellar form in white-ball cricket at home, steamrolling New Zealand, West Indies and then Sri Lanka in limited-overs cricket but this will be their first red-ball assignment at home this year. Rohit has gotten off to a great start as a white-ball captain and if he can replicate the same in Test cricket, India's chances of making it to the World Test Championship final for the second time in a row will be bright. There are no Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane in this squad and the likes of Hanuma Vihari and Shubman Gill will be looking to cement their places in the side. As far as Sri Lanka are concerned, they are still searching for their maiden Test win on Indian soil. (LIVE SCORECARD)

Winning Games For India "My Prime Motivation": Virat Kohli Ahead Of His 100th Test

Virat Kohli will play his 100th Test match on Friday when he takes the field against Sri Lanka in Mohali. He will be the 12th Indian and 71st cricketer to reach the milestone, which is a marker of a player's quality and longevity. Kohli is on the cusp of completing 8000 runs in Test cricket too. This will be his first Test as a player since 2014, as he stepped down from India's Test captaincy after the series in South Africa. In the interim he became India's most successful Test captain in terms of victories and win percentage. The Kohli-era in Indian Test cricket will go down in history as one of the most glorious, as he won every series that he captained at home and went on to achieve several fine victories away from home, including a maiden series triumph in Australia.

"Playing 100th Test for your country is an incredible feeling, all of us when we were kids playing in the compounds of our house, we dream of playing for India. After playing for the country and you come to your 100th Test, it is an incredible feeling. Reaching the 100th Test means you have played for the country very successfully. No carrier will be smooth, there will be highs and lows," said Gavaskar in a video posted on the official Twitter handle of BCCI.
