In fact, India will become the first ever country in the world to snatch this five-in-row series victories in Sri Lanka under the captaincy of single leader.

The only other nation to have come very close to this milestone is Pakistan when they bagged the first, third and fourth series out of their first four assignments in Lanka during the period 1986 to 1994.
