IND vs SL 1st ODI LIVE Cricket Score: India posts a mammoth grand total of 373 runs against Sri Lanka

Rajitha sends KL Rahul to stands, who scored 39 runs off 29 balls. Hardik Pandya comes in.

After Kohli's grand half-century, KL Rahul too seems to have shifted gears to take the Lankan attack to the cleaners. Meanwhile, Kohli isn't letting Sri Lankan bowlers off the hook! Expensive over from Dunith Wellalage. 12 runs from the 39th over.

Wicketkeeper Mendis drops an easy catch from his wide gloves to give Kohli a new lease of life, who now rubs salt into Sri Lanka's wounds by smashing back to back boundaries.

Kohli smashes another half-century in the game after Rohit and Gill. KL Rahul and Kohli are building another fatal partnership to pile misery on the Lankan side.

IND vs SL 1st ODI LIVE Cricket Score: IND 213/3 (29.1 ov), Shreyas departs for 28, follow live updates

First breakthrough for the Lankan side as Shanaka sends Gill to pavilion. Virat Kohli comes in to take the game forward. Gill scored 70 out of 60 balls.

Very expensive over! Three boundaries; Gill smashes 3 back to back fours. Dunith Wellalage gives 19 runs in the 19th over as Rohit smashes six on the last ball!

Here comes Gill's 50 off 51 balls! Lankan bowlers still seem to have no answers to the Indian questions. Terrific play by both batters.

Both the Indian batters have displayed good cricket. While they smashes sixes and fours throughout the powerplay, they are now moving on slowly as Sri Lanka deploys spinner attackers. 

Rohit Sharma reaches the 50 score mark off 41 balls with an impressive strike rate. The Indian captain seems to have gotten back in form.  

2 runs off Dimuth Karunaratne's second over! Powerplay is over and the Indian batting side seems to be allowing Lankan bowlers heave a sigh of relief

Hasaranga's spell continues. Sri Lanka went to the third umpire again to get Rohit declared LBW out, but the Lankan side was betrayed by the luck yet again. A very good over by Hasaranga. Only 3 runs. 

After an economic over from spinner Hasaranga, the captain turned to Dimuth Karunaratne. Again, economic over from Sri Lanka, only six runs from the 10th over for team India.

Shanaka turns to Hasaranga to help Lanka get the first wicket and sabotage the opening partnership. Good over for Lanka, although India got 6 runs off the 6 balls.  

What an over! Rohit smashes two sixes and 1 four in the last over against Rajitha! Sri Lankan bowling line up has almost been dismantled by the Indian openers! After 7.2 overs, India stands at 59 with zero wicket.

The Indian openers are putting Dilshan Madushanka under pressure here. The left-arm seamer is struggling due to a lack of surface moment. It will be noteworthy to see when does Shanaka turn to spinners.

Both Shubman Gill and Rohit Sharma look in great shape. So far, both players have smashed 7 fours. Sri Lankan bowlers have no chance against the dangerous opening duo. Things spiced up a bit in the last over as Sri Lanks went to the third umpire to get Rohit Sharma declared LBW out! Alas! Umpire gave India the clean chit. 

Rohit Sharma: 14*
Shubman Gill: 08*

After the end of three overs, India's score is 22 runs. 

Rohit's stunning four helps India open scorecard. As the first over ends, India's score is 4-0. 

India's opening lineup: Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill on the ground. 

India: Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul (wk), Shreyas Iyer, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal, Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami, Umran Malik

Sri Lanka: Kusal Mendis (wk), Pathum Nissanka, Avishka Fernando, Dhananjaya de Silva, Charith Asalanka, Dasun Shanaka (c), Wanindu Hasaranga, Chamika Karunaratne, Dunith Wellalage, Kasun Rajitha, Dilshan Madushanka

Kohli will be looking to surpass Sachin Tendulkar's record of 20 ODI tonnes at home in 164 matches. Kohli, on the other hand, has 19 centuries in his name, in 101 matches.

Jasprit Bumrah has been ruled out of India's three-match One-Day International series against Sri Lanka due to a back injury. Since August 2022, the fast bowler has been out of action, missing multiple T20I series as well as the Asia Cup. He recovered in time to play two Twenty20 Internationals against Australia, but aggravated his injury, missed the T20 World Cup, and has yet to return.

Sri Lanka wins toss, chooses to bowl first

It's toss time! The pitch is a little dry, and there are a few cracks. Tonight, Dew could come into play. The team fielding second will have a difficult time because the ball will be difficult to grip. The pitch appears to be good for batting, but chasing will be easier here.

Fans are expected to see another high-scoring match between India and Sri Lanka today.
