IND vs SL: This Sri Lankan player did not get trapped by Indian bowlers, remained not-out in the entire ODI series
India vs Sri Lanka ODI Series: The Indian cricket team led by Rohit Sharma made a clean sweep in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. In the last ODI, the Sri Lankan team could not even cross the 100 mark.
The Indian team won the three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka 3-0 on Sunday. The bowlers played an important role in Sri Lanka’s clean sweep. India bowled out Sri Lanka twice. The Sri Lankan team was bundled out for 215 in the second ODI and just 73 runs in the third match. At the same time, the visiting team added 306 runs at the loss of 8 wickets in the first ODI. However, a very interesting thing was seen in the series that a Sri Lankan player returned to the unbeaten pavilion every time.
Rajitha remained not-out in all three matches
The Sri Lankan batsmen were trapped several times by the Indian bowlers but Kasun Rajitha remained not-out in three matches. Rajitha is the leading fast bowler of Sri Lanka. He added 9 runs in 19 balls in Guwahati. Rajitha scored 17 runs in 21 balls with the help of 3 fours in the second ODI in Kolkata. He remained unbeaten in the third match after scoring 13 runs in 19 balls with two fours. He scored a total of 39 runs in the entire series. Apart from scoring this run, he also took 6 wickets in the series.

India posted a mammoth score of 390/5 riding on brilliant centuries from Virat Kohli (166 not out) and Shubman Gill (116). In response, the Sri Lankan team was reduced to 22 overs only.
