4 hundreds have been hit by the Indian players against Sri Lanka in the second test match. Kohli was among the leader by making his 5th Double ton and played a marathon innings of 213 runs. This is Virat;s 19th Century in Test cricket and with this century he became the first ever captain to hit 10 centuries in international cricket in a calendar year.
India’s new Mr. Dependable Cheteshwar Pujara repeats his run making habit and makes a well deserved 143 run. He also reached to the 1000 run mark in year 2017 with average of more than 70.
Murali Vijay make a strong comeback and made valuable 128 at the top of the innings .This was his 10th century and with this innings he’s has created a good headache among the team management to choose the openers in the third test when Dhawan will be available for selection.
The fourth centurion is also a comeback guy Rohit Sharma who is still trying to find his place in the Playing XI. He got test chance after 1 year and he utilised this with both hand by making 102*. As we all know that rahane is in out of form for last some time so Rohit’s form is a plus point for India and he can be the possible no 5 batsman for India if Rahane’s poor form will continue.
India declared their innings at 610-6 by taking a huge lead of 405 runs.
