Kohli kickstarted his 2023 on a flying note as the flamboyant right-hander steered the side to attain a massive total of 373 runs with his brilliant century (113 runs). Riding high on his terrific form, the batter will be keen to play yet another vital role in the forthcoming match and take the Lankan bowling unit head-on.

In the first ODI, Hasaranga was unable to scalp any wicket, however, he had a decent economy rate as he gave 67 runs in 10 overs. In the forthcoming contest, considering that there is some assistance for the spinners, he could have an edge and get the important wickets.
