India wins series against Srilanka

Gautam Gambhir notched up his seventh century while Virat Kohli struck his maiden to script India's series-clinching seven-wicket win over Sri Lanka in the fourth cricket ODI in Kolkata on Thursday. Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli helped India beat Sri Lanka by 7 wickets in the fourth ODI at Kolkata and win the five match series 3-1. Gautam Gambhir remained unbeaten on 150.
Batting first after winning the toss, the visitors set a new record for the highest ODI total at Eden Gardens as they finished at a mammoth 315/6. However, the Indians chased down the improbable target with ease even as openers Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar had fallen with just 23 runs on the board. A partnership of 224 between Gambhir and Kohli ensured that India will go into the fifth and final ODI at Delhi with the series already in the bag.
