What a start to Rohit's test captaincy 🥳

A thumping win for India, they beat Sri Lanka by an innings an 222 runs inside three days to take 1-0 lead in the series. He couldn't complete a ten-wicket haul but what a Test for Jadeja. With the bat, he scored an unbeaten 175, then picked up five in the first innings and four in the second. Such was his performance that it completely overshadowed Ashwin's effort who scored 61 and bowled magnificently to pick up six wickets in the game. In the process he went past Richard Hadlee, Rangana Herath and Kapil Dev's Test wicket tally. Also, it seems for a moment everyone forgot this was Virat Kohli's 100th Test.

Ashwin: I think he has really come along the way he has batted in the last four-five years. The number he is batting is a bit low in my opinion. In between, we both realised that Jayant hasn't bowled a lot and someone who is going to be the third spinner, Rohit also gave him a few overs. Sometimes it's not that easy being the third spinner in the side and it's important to look after. Jaddu was magnanimous in giving the ball away. Sometimes I get ahead of myself with the bat but I have worked on things was looking to take one ball at a time. The surface was a really good one, it was not easy to get batters out when they were defending. You had to bowl tight for sustained periods. I think Shami and Jasprit created pressure from the end where it wasn't turning much.

Vikas: "Jadeja could score alone the same a Whole team Srilankan scores. And he could take alone more wickets that Srilanka took ! Wow ! What a performance - hats off Sir Jadeja "

Jadeja: This is my lucky ground. Whenever I come here, I always get positive vibes. I was looking to build partnership with wicket. To be honest I don't know about stats [hundred and ten-for] but I am happy to do well with bat and ball. When you perform like this, you feel very confident. I haven't done anything differently with my batting, just backing my instincts. I try to settle down and after that I play my shots. I try to keep it simple. I haven't played with the SG pink ball, so it will be something new. Hopefully, it will be good only after a couple of days of practice. I always love bowling with the SG ball.

Ravindra Jadeja is the Player of the Match.

Congrats to India n Jadduu👏🥳

Wow ...what a great day for Indian cricket lovers!

Great wins in both formats.👍🏼

Jadeja is the hero of this match, he has shown his batting and bowling prowess, proved himself as one of the very good all-rounders.

Congratulations to Indian Team for their win against SL in style. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
