Men's ODI WC: Gill, Kohli, Iyer Fifties Help India Post 357/8 Against Sri Lanka
ODI World Cup: Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer struck superb half-centuries to help India post 357/8 against Sri Lanka, despite a fifer for left-arm pacer Dilshan Madushanka (5-80), in Match 33 of the ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2023 at the Wankhede Stadium here on Thursday.
Gill struck a run-a-ball 92, Kohli scored a well-compiled 94-ball 88 and Iyer hammered a 56-ball 82 and though all three failed to get their centuries, they managed to help India reach a big score on a typical Wankhede batting track after Sri Lanka skipper Kusal Mendis asked India to bat first.
Sri Lanka got an early breakthrough but could not capitalise on it due to inconsistent bowling, dropped catches and bad fielding.
