Kohli and Karthik never allowed the Sri Lankan bowlers to settle down as they kept the asking rate in check by finding the fence a little too frequently for the Sri Lankan liking. The duo added 186 runs in just 140 balls.

Kohli was dismissed for a well-made 144. Kohli likes to score big against Sri Lanka in ODIs as 5 out of his 13 centuries have come against the Lankans.

Dhoni then came in at number seven and spent some crucial time in the middle by scoring unbeaten 18 runs off 17 balls. He and Karthik (106 not out) made sure the Indians reached the target with an over to spare.
