Champions Trophy 2017 | India vs Sri Lanka: Reliving India's power-packed 321 knock with some eye-catching pics

Shikhar Dhawan's power packed century and belligerent knocks from Rohit Sharma, MS Dhoni and Kedar Jadhav propelled India to mammoth 321 runs. Moreover, Rohit and Dhawan brought another century stand and became the most successful pair in Champions Trophy matches as they recorded 636 runs in 7 innings. It was Dhawan's 10th ODI century and India's 'Gabbar' justified the team's think-tank's faith on him. Former captain MS Dhoni too displayed great form at the later stage of the innings and along with Kedar Jadhav, led the lower order assault. None of the Sri Lankan bowlers were able to trouble the Indian batsmen as fours and sixes rained all over the ground.
