WATCH: Shikhar Dhawan’s 190 run-knock against Sri Lanka at Galle

Indin opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan literally toyed with the Sri Lankan bowling attack in the post-lunch session to score 190 off just 168 balls on Day 1 of the opening Test match between the two teams at Galle on Wednesday.

The southpaw raced to his century off 110 balls with 16 fours, batting on the score of 64 at lunch, he moved into top gear after the break.

He went berserk at the start of the 33rd over, smashing three fours off Dilruwan Perera and cut Nuwan Pradeep to the point fence to jump from 82 to 100 within no time.
