Highlights, India vs Sri Lanka, 1st ODI, Full Cricket Score: Dasun Shanaka's ton in vain as India win by 67 runs

21:53 (IST)

That brings us to the end of our coverage of the first ODI between India and Sri Lanka, with the Men in (light) Blue going 1-0 up in the series with a comfortable win and will now be hoping to seal the series with a game to spare at Kolkata's Eden Gardens, where the two sides meet again in a couple of days' time.

Thank you to everyone who tuned in to our live coverage. On behalf of my colleagues at Firstpost Sports, this is Amit signing off, bidding you all good night!

Virat Kohli is the Player of the Match for his 113 (87)

Sri Lanka vs India 2023 Live Score

India continue their winning run against their neighbours after taking the T20I series 2-1 with a commanding victory at Rajkot, going 1-0 up in the one-dayers with a comfortable victory in Guwahati.

There were plenty of positives for the Men in Blue from today's performance, from the solid opening stand between Rohit and Gill and Kohli slamming his first ton at home in over three years to the clinical bowling performance in Powerplay 1 and 2, especially Siraj in the first 10 overs. What the team should take note of however, will be the manner in which they took their foot off the gas pedal in the last 10 overs and allowed the Sri Lankans to mount a comeback. 

For the Sri Lankans, fielding will be a key point of concern, especially the manner in which Kohli was dropped twice during his stay at the crease. But the manner with which Shanaka stood tall and continued to fight, bringing up his second ODI hundred, should inspire confidence among his teammates.

Sri Lanka vs India Live Cricket Score

After 50 overs,Sri Lanka 306/8 ( Dasun Shanaka (C) 108 , Kasun Rajitha 9)

SIX! Dasun Shanaka finishes the innings with a four and a six, remaining unbeaten on 108 and completing the century stand with Rajitha for the ninth wicket in the end.

The admirable fightback from Shanaka and Rajitha, though, ultimately counts for little as Team India go 1-0 up in the three-match series with a 67-run win in Guwahati!

21:22 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India LIVE Score

FOUR! Dasun Shanaka brings up his second ODI hundred with a lovely cover drive off Mohammed Shami, taking 87 deliveries to bring up the milestone! What a fighting display this has been from the Sri Lanka skipper, who continues his rich vein of form in the ongoing tour with this display. SL 300/8

21:13 (IST)

India vs Sri Lanka 2023 LIVE Score

After 48 overs,Sri Lanka 281/8 ( Dasun Shanaka (C) 88 , Kasun Rajitha 4)

FOUR! FOUR! Dasun Shanaka moves to the 80s with back-to-back boundaries off Mohammed Shami, and will certainly be fancying his chances of bringing up the three-figure mark for only the second time in his one-day career! He's batting on 88 at the end of the 48th. Credit to Kasun Rajitha as well for providing valuable support from the other end by preserving his wicket.

21:08 (IST)

India vs Sri Lanka Live Cricket Score

After 46 overs,Sri Lanka 269/8 ( Dasun Shanaka (C) 76 , Kasun Rajitha 4)

Shanaka is having plenty of fun out at the centre at the moment, having collected a boundary in each of the last three overs including back-to-back fours off Umran in the 44th, guiding the Sri Lankans past 250 and also bringing up the fifty stand with Kasun Rajitha, who's choosing between blocking and handing the strike back to his captain at the moment. Rohit, meanwhile, brings Shami back into the attack in the 46th, the senior pacer yielding seven off his seventh over.

21:02 (IST)

India vs Sri Lanka Live Score

FOUR! FOUR! Consecutive boundaries for Shanaka off Malik as the Sri Lanka skipper moves to the 60s! Malik has bowled well today, as the wickets column would suggest, but his habit of leaking runs aplenty has also persisted. The boundaries also brings up the 250 for the Sri Lankans. SL 253/8

20:59 (IST)

IND vs SL Live Cricket Score

After 43 overs,Sri Lanka 245/8 ( Dasun Shanaka (C) 53 , Kasun Rajitha 4)

Fifty up for Dasun Shanaka at run-a-ball, the Sri Lanka skipper bringing up the milestone with a brace off Axar at the start of the 43rd over. His fourth ODI half-century as well as the second of this tour across formats. With the 374-run target well beyond Sri Lanka's reach now, Shanaka will look to have some fun and get batting practice at the middle. SL 241/8

20:48 (IST)

IND vs SL Live Score

FOUR! FOUR! Back-to-back fours for Sri Lanka skipper Shanaka off Umran, the first of which is a mishit that nearly results in a superb catch by Rohit at wide long off. His Indian counterpart was running from mid off and even got the ball in his palms for a moment, only for it to pop out in the end. Shanaka follows it up with a commanding hit straight down the ground. SL 235/8

20:44 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India 2023 Live Score

After 40 overs,Sri Lanka 220/8 ( Dasun Shanaka (C) 31 , Kasun Rajitha 2)

Sri Lanka have managed to survive till the end of the second powerplay, and will hope to bat out the remaining overs and get some batting practice for themselves. Dasun Shanaka is fairly set on 31 at the moment and will be eyeing his fourth half-century from here. For the Men in Blue, it's a matter two good deliveries and they will be hoping to get those as early as they can.

20:38 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India Live Cricket Score

SIX! Smashed over deep midwicket, as Dasun Shanaka, who will now look to have some fun out there in the middle with the possibility of a victory well out of his team's reach. Was a length ball from Siraj and Shanaka, who is in sparkling form with the bat at the moment, has little problem middling the pull. SL 214/8

20:33 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India LIVE Score

OUT! As simple a catch as it can get for Rohit Sharma at mid on as Chamika Karunaratne hardly gets any timing on the shot after taking a couple of steps down the track, looking to smash Hardik Pandya down the ground. The Indian vice-captain strikes right after being brought back by skipper Rohit, getting his first wicket as a result. SL 206/8

Malik concedes just one off his sixth over — a wide in the fourth delivery — while Chahal gives away three in the subsequent over, including a brace to Karunaratne off the second ball. Rohit then brings Siraj back into the attack in place of Malik. Five off the Hyderabad seamer's sixth over, including a brace to the Sri Lanka captain as the visitors finally cross the 200-mark in the 37th over.

20:12 (IST)

India vs Sri Lanka Live Cricket Score

After 34 overs,Sri Lanka 194/7 ( Dasun Shanaka (C) 14 , Chamika Karunaratne 9)

Malik's a bit erratic after grabbing his third wicket, conceding two boundaries to new batter Karunaratne that are separated by a wide, his fifth over yielding 10 runs. Sri Lanka skipper Shanaka, the last recognised batter left, collects his first boundary, going for an expansive sweep towards the square leg fence. Umpire signals drinks at the end of the 34th.

Sri Lanka need another 180 to win off 96 balls with just three wickets in hand.

20:09 (IST)

India vs Sri Lanka Live Score

OUT! Umran Malik strikes for a second time in this spell, collecting his third wicket as a result as Dunith Wellalage departs for a golden duck! Shubman Gill has a fraction of a second to react as the ball flies like a rocket to him after getting the outside edge, and manages to pouch it right in front of his face in the end. SL 179/7

After 32 overs,Sri Lanka 178/6 ( Dasun Shanaka (C) 9 , Dunith Wellalage 0)

OUT! Yuzvendra Chahal has the last laugh in the battle of the leg-spinners, firing a googly at Hasaranga with the latter skieing the ball towards wide long on, where Shreyas Iyer settles under the ball and grabs it safely despite nearly colliding with Umran Malik. SL 178/6

Hasaranga c Iyer b Chahal 16(7)

SIX! SIX! FOUR! Wanindu Hasaranga smashes back-to-back sixes off fellow leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal to get off the mark, smashing both over the deep midwicket fence! He follows it up with an inside out loft over extra cover for a boundary. How will Yuzi Chahal respond? SL 178/5

19:51 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India 2023 Live Score

OUT! Huge blow to Sri Lanka's hopes of chasing 374 down as Umran Malik bounces Pathum Nissanka out. The well-set opener gets barely gets any timing on an attempted pull off a short-delivery from the fiery pacer, getting a thick top-edge that leads to the easiest of chances for Axar at midwicket. SL 161/5

Nissanka c Axar b Malik 72(80)

19:46 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India Live Cricket Score

After 28 overs,Sri Lanka 151/4 ( Pathum Nissanka 64 , Dasun Shanaka (C) 6)

Change from both ends, with Pandya and Chahal replacing Shami and Axar respectively as Rohit sticks with the plan of bowling seam and spin in tandem. Nissanka, meanwhile, moves into the 60s with a lovely straight drive off the all-rounder. Chahal then bowls out a tidy sixth over, conceding just three after going for 23 runs in his last two. Additonally, skipper Dasun Shanaka has arrived at the crease now and he will hope to maintain the kind of run that he had in the T20Is, where he finished the second-highest run-scorer behind Suryakumar Yadav.

19:32 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India LIVE Score

After 25 overs,Sri Lanka 137/4 ( Pathum Nissanka 55 , Dasun Shanaka (C) 1)

OUT! Dhananjaya de Silva falls just three short of what would've been his ninth ODI half-century as Mohammed Shami strikes after being brought back for a second spell by Rohit. DDS was looking to punch the short-of-length ball through the covers but the experienced seamer managed to get a hint of away movement, getting a thick outside edge to the keeper as a result. Sri Lanka had been motoring along nicely in the recent overs, but once again find themselves on the backfoot at the halfway stage of their chase.

Dhananjaya c Rahul b Shami 47(40)

19:26 (IST)

Rohit persists with spin from both ends now with Chahal and Axar bowling in tandem. Chahal ends up conceding 13 in his fifth over, including back-to-back fours followed by a single that brings up the fifty for Pathum Nissanka. Axar keeps it tidy in his third over, going for three runs including a brace to Dhananjaya off the third delivery that brings up the fifty partnership for the fourth wicket.

19:23 (IST)

India vs Sri Lanka Live Cricket Score

Fifty up for Pathum Nissanka, who has been in sparkling form throughout the tour so far! Collects back-to-back boundaries at the start of Chahal's fifth over before bringing up the milestone with a single, taking 47 deliveries to get there. Has been quite the fightback from the Lankans so far and Nissanka's positive approach has been at the centre of it. SL 107/3

19:14 (IST)

India vs Sri Lanka Live Score

After 20 overs,Sri Lanka 98/3 ( Pathum Nissanka 41 , Dhananjaya de Silva 25)

Runs suddenly are starting to flow for the Sri Lankans now with 22 runs coming off the last two overs. Nissanka and Dhananjaya collect a boundary each off Chahal in the 19th. Dhananjaya then collects three boundaries off Axar in the 20th, hitting the ball towards either side of the wicket before deftly guiding it past slip off the last ball. The Lankans are two shy of the century mark with the current partnership worth 34.

19:07 (IST)

IND vs SL Live Cricket Score

FOUR! DDS gets down on one knee and slog-sweeps a full delivery from Chahal towards the vacant midwicket fence to move to double figures! All of Dhananjaya's runs have come off boundaries so far, the all-rounder having collected consecutive boundaries off Malik earlier. SL 85/3

19:03 (IST)

Fastest Indian by a country-mile. Can he prove to be the fastest-ever down the road?

19:02 (IST)

IND vs SL Live Score

After 16 overs,Sri Lanka 74/3 ( Pathum Nissanka 34 , Dhananjaya de Silva 8)

Chahal continues after being brought in place of Hardik Pandya, conceding just one off his second over. New batter Dhananjaya de Silva, meanwhile, uses the extra pace on offer from Malik to collect back-to-back fours at the end of the 16th, the first one a thick edge that flies away to third man. Umpire signals drinks at the end of the 16th.

Sri Lanka need exactly 300 more to win with 204 balls and seven wickets remaining.

18:54 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India 2023 Live Score

OUT! Now Umran Malik joins Mohammed Siraj in the wickets column, getting Charith Asalanka caught-behind for 23 to break the third-wicket stand that was looking increasingly threatening from the Men in Blue's perspective. Malik had cramped Asalanka for room down the leg side, and the southpaw appeared to get a tickle while looking to play this behind square. Asalanka walks off without reviewing, and replays later show no contact between bat and ball and a sizeable spike when it passes by the trouser. SL 64/3

Asalanka c Rahul b Malik 23(28)

18:44 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India Live Cricket Score

After 12 overs,Sri Lanka 53/2 ( Pathum Nissanka 25 , Charith Asalanka 20)

Expensive second over from Pandya, with 12 coming off it including a couple of boundaries to Charith Asalanka, who is looking increasingly settled at the moment. The 50 partnership also comes up at the end of the 11th. Rohit then takes Siraj off after giving the Hyderabadi a five-over opening spell, bringing Umran Malik in, the J&K pacer conceding three singles off his first over.

18:35 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India LIVE Score

After 10 overs,Sri Lanka 38/2 ( Pathum Nissanka 22 , Charith Asalanka 10)

Siraj gets a fifth over on the trot. Asalanka collects his first boundary, going for an aerial drive over the cover region, before getting off strike with a single. Siraj successfully appeals for LBW off the last ball of the first powerplay, and the opener goes upstairs right away. Replays confirm a thick edge, and Nitin Menon's decision is rightfully overturned. Sri Lanka have collected just 38 runs in the first powerplay, and will struggle to cross 200, let along get 374, at this pace.

18:29 (IST)

India vs Sri Lanka 2023 LIVE Score

After 9 overs,Sri Lanka 33/2 ( Pathum Nissanka 22 , Charith Asalanka 5)

Siraj nearly collects a third wicket inside the powerplay as Nissanka gets a leading edge while attempting to pull a short ball; Siraj charges towards the ball at the end of his follow-through and nearly pulls off a low return catch that would've been a real body blow to the visitors. The Men in Blue, meanwhile, introduce a bowling change inside the powerplay, with Hardik Pandya replacing Mohammed Shami in the ninth and starting off on a tidy note, conceding just one.

18:20 (IST)

India vs Sri Lanka Live Score

FOUR! Majestic stuff from Nissanka, who produces a straight drive off an overpitched delivery from Siraj to move into the 20s. SL 32/2
 

18:17 (IST)

IND vs SL Live Cricket Score

After 7 overs,Sri Lanka 28/2 ( Pathum Nissanka 18 , Charith Asalanka 4)

Nissanka collects a fourth boundary off Shami's bowling at the start of the fifth over, but the senior operator keeps it tidy in the remainder of the over, collecting five dots in a row. Siraj then nearly makes it consecutive wicket-maidens in a row, conceding just two off his third while getting rid of Mendis four a four-ball duck. Shami then bowls out his first boundary-less over in the seventh. Sri Lanka are in a spot of bother at the moment, going at four-an-over and losing two wickets inside the powerplay.

18:13 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India 2023 Live Score

BOWLED! Siraj strikes twice in as many overs, this time using the scrambled seam delivery to breach Mendis' defence and rattle the stumps. Mendis, who had been in rollicking form in the T20Is, got nowhere close to the line of the delivery while attempting a drive. "A truck would've gone through that gap," says commentator Sunil Gavaskar on air, describing it fairly accurately. It's a four-ball duck for the Lankan keeper-batter. SL 23/2

Mendis b Siraj 0(4)

18:09 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India Live Cricket Score

After 4 overs,Sri Lanka 19/1 ( Pathum Nissanka 13 , Kusal Mendis (W) 0)

Nissanka collects another boundary off Shami, this time tickling the ball away off his pad after Shami strays down the leg side. Siraj, however, pulls things back nicely the very next over, getting Team India the early wicket that they were looking for with a wicket maiden, getting rid of Avishka Fernando in his second over.

18:05 (IST)

Sri Lanka vs India LIVE Score

OUT! The dot-ball pressure gets the better of Avishka Fernando as he ends up slicing the ball high in the air while looking to clear the fence. Hardik Pandya settles under the ball near mid off and grabs it safely, as Team India are off to an ideal start by striking early. SL 19/1

Pathum Nissanka is off to a confident start, collecting a couple of boundaries off Mohammed Shami in the very first over. Unleashes a punch in front of point two balls after opening Sri Lanka's account with a lovely cover drive. Mohammed Siraj with the other new ball. Avishka Fernando too collects his first runs with a boundary, going for a firm cut in the third delivery.
