Sri Lanka vs India 2017: 1st ODI, 5 talking points

#1 Shikhar Dhawan torments Sri Lanka

Dhawan slammed the fastest hundred against Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka by an Indian

Shikhar Dhawan has seemingly arrived in Sri Lanka as a man in a mission. He accomplished most of his goals in the Test series finishing as the highest run-scorer with two hundreds and an average almost touching 90. But he has gotten greedy and started the ODI series with a typical 'Gabbar-style' hundred, coming off 71 balls.

He was blistering right from the onset, and dug into the Sri Lankan bowlers with disdain. There was the sweep, drive, cut, straight drive, slash, pull, reverse sweep, lofted drive and every other shot in the textbook of cricket and even some outside it. By the end of Sri Lanka's misery, Dhawan had 132 to his name, more than half of India's score.
