India vs Sri Lanka 3rd ODI Highlights: Yet another batting masterclass from Virat Kohli (unbeaten 166 off 110 balls), following a Mohammed Siraj's new-ball burst (4/32) helped team India attain a monstrous 317-run win over Sri Lanka in 3rd ODI, clean sweep three-match series 3-0 at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram, Sunday. It was a clinical win for India all-through. After remarkable centuries from Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill (116 runs off 97 balls) set the hosts up, Mohammed Siraj's lethal bowling in second innings (4-wicket haul) bowled out the visitors for a mere total of 73 in 22 overs. Notably, only three Lankan batters could manage to score in double digits and just one partnership faced 20-plus deliveries while chasing an almost impossible target of 391 for the win.

By the virtue of this win, team India created a new world record for biggest margin of win in ODIs in terms of runs. India's 317-run win over Sri Lanka in third and final One-Day-International is their biggest margin of win in terms of runs in history of ODI cricket.
