Team India’s batting masters Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma could not contain their joy after spotting a reimagined post of the classic Bollywood movie ‘Lagaan’ featuring Sharma and other current members of the Indian current team. The video quickly went viral from the second ODI between India and Sri Lanka, which took place on August 4 at R. Premadasa Cricket Stadium in Colombo.

Under the new head coach, Gautam Gambhir, Team India commenced their tour of Sri Lanka strongly, securing a 43-run win in the first T20I in Pallekele International Cricket Stadium. They continued to dominate in the second and third T20Is at the same time to win the series over the hosts. Suryakumar Yadav and his men won the second T20I by the DLS method, while they got a magnificent win in the third T20I during the thrilling Super Over of the game.
