Virat Kohli - India vs Sri Lanka 1st Test Live Score: Rohit Sharma Opts To Bat, Picks Three Spinners In Virat Kohli's 100th Test - sports.ndtv.com - New Zealand - India - Sri Lanka

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)

India vs Sri Lanka, 1st Test: A different kind of century for Virat Kohli

Will Mohali mark an important turning point for the best Indian batter of his generation?As Virat Kohli becomes only the 71st cricketer to get to a 100 Tests, he can be forgiven for having mixed feelings about the occasion. Like those 'Greatest Hits' albums which can simultaneously celebrate and complete a musical career, big individual landmarks in sport can both cement legacy and uproot relevance.

1st Test, India vs Sri Lanka: Dimuth Karunaratne says Kusal Mendis still not fit, Niroshan Dickwella back

Kusal Mendis' hamstring injury continues to keep him out but wicketkeeper-batter Niroshan Dickwella is back after serving a one-year ban for a bio-bubble breach, Sri Lanka skipper Dimuth Karunaratne said on Thursday unveiling his line-up for the opening Test against India here. Both Dickwella and Mendis were banned for a year for breaching bio-bubble protocols during Sri Lanka's tour of England last year. Mendis' inclusion for this tour was subject to fitness following a hamstring injury during the fifth T20I against Australia. He did not play in the T20Is against India because of it. "Dickwella will be the wicketkeeper, (pacer) Dushmantha Chameera will be rested and will be available for the pink ball Test and Mendis has been ruled out," he said on the eve of the first Test, which would be India star Virat Kohli's 100th five-day match.

Hailed by many as the 'Last of the Mohicans' in cricket's purest format, Virat Kohli will be focussed on making his 100th appearance memorable while "white-ball legend" Rohit Sharma plots the demolition of an out-of-depth Sri Lanka as India's 35th Test captain in the series-opener starting in Mohali on Friday. If one looks back at Indian team's journey since its inception in international cricket back in 1932, it has been about stars, superstars, and megastars, who become the reason for the footfall at turnstiles of various stadiums across the country. It was the case when Sunil Gavaskar scored his 10,000th run, Sachin Tendulkar bade the most emotional farewell that cricket has ever seen and now the spotlight will be firmly on Kohli, whose domineering presence has turned an international match into a footnote.

India and Sri Lanka will battle it out in a two-match Test series starting March 4 in Mohali. The first Test will mark the beginning of newly appointed full-time skipper Rohit Sharma's journey as the leader of the Test side.
