Shikhar Dhawan – 4.5/5:

Making his comeback into the ultimate form of the game, Dhawan made it crystal clear that he meant serious business. His super charged up knock of 190, coming off just a mere 168 deliveries blew the Sri Lankans away and set the tone for the rest of the game. Despite throwing his wicket away in the second innings, Dhawan was rightly adjudged the Man of the Match and would look to carry on his form at Colombo.
