Just days after combining with Bhuvneshwar Kumar to help Indian claim a 3-wicket victory over Sri Lanka in second ODI, the former Indian captain paired up with Rohit Sharma to put an unbroken 157-run stand for fifth wicket to help Virat Kohli and Co secure 3-0 series win the 5-Match ODI series in the 3rd ODI on Sunday Aug 27,2017
Opener Rohit Sharma registered a century while speedster Jasprit Bumrah secured his maiden five-wicket haul to power Team India to a series-clinching win.
Chasing 218 for victory, Sharma hit a 145-ball 124 not out to steer the visitors home in 45.1 overs, although unruly crowd behaviour delayed their six-wicket win in Pallekele.
M S Dhoni presently has most number of unbeaten knocks (40) in successful ODI run chases ahead of Jonty Rhodes (33), Inzamam-ul-Haq (32) and Ricky Ponting (31).
