Man-of-the-Series winning performance has contributed to a turnaround in his career, says the left-arm fast bowler

Sri Lanka competed hard on a bouncy Wankhede Stadium deck, but India pulled ahead at the crucial moments to wrap up a five-wicket win

With the series in the bag, India might consider handing a T20I debut to Tamil Nadu allrounder Washington Sundar or Baroda allrounder Deepak Hooda

Having struck the joint-fastest T20I hundred, Rohit Sharma was pleased that despite a high percentage of boundaries, his innings centred on conventional cricketing shots

The injury has ruled him out of the third T20I against India on Sunday and could also put him in doubt for the start of the forthcoming Bangladesh tour

Rohit Sharma battered the joint-fastest T20I century and was supported by KL Rahul who made 89 off 49 as India posted a mammoth 260 that was too much for Sri Lanka

The stand-in India captain also spoke about why Ajinkya Rahane was left out, and what MS Dhoni's innings meant

Sri Lanka's seamers, led by Suranga Lakmal, used swinging and seaming conditions in Dharamsala to rip through India, setting up a seven-wicket rout that also snapped their 12-game losing streak in ODIs

Kedar Jadhav suffered a hamstring injury while training on the eve of the ODI series opener against Sri Lanka

Rohit, who has led Mumbai Indians to three titles in the IPL, will lead India for the first time in the ODI series opener against Sri Lanka in Dharamsala

The visitors, buoyed by the return of Angelo Mathews, Asela Gunaratne and Danushka Gunathilaka, seek to improve a woeful 2017 ODI record
