Virat Kohli and Murali Vijay smashed big centuries in a massive 283-run stand to deflate Sri Lanka on the opening day of the third and final test at Delhi's Feroz Shah Kotla on Saturday. Rohit Sharma was on six at the other end, with the hosts chasing a record-equalling ninth consecutive test series win after Kohli won the toss. After winning the toss, Indian skipper Virat Kohli said that he has opted to bat first as he wants his openers to face some challenge. Sri Lanka, on the other hand, are going with three changes. Virat Kohli and his side are yet to lose a Test series at home and they will like to keept the record intact.
