Despite being in a losing cause, this Virat Kohli masterclass had great significance. In his first full-tour as Test captain, on a treacherous spin-friendly wicket in Galle, Virat Kohli came out to bat after two early wickets had fallen.

Due to the extremely difficult conditions, Kohli had to play circumspectly, and this innings turned out to be one of his slowest centuries, coming at a strike rate of 53. Even though India would go on to lose the match in dramatic fashion, Kohli's negotiation of the tough conditions and his attitude of leading from the front not only showcased his mastery as a Test batsman but also inspired the rest of the team to win the remaining two matches and become victorious in a memorable Test series in Sri Lanka.
