Virat Kohli made history yet again as he slammed his fifth double hundred in Test cricket. Scoring his first double hundred against

Sri Lanka, he equalled West Indies legend Brian Lara's record of most double hundreds as captain.

All five of his double tons have come against different opponents - West Indies, New Zealand, England, Bangladesh and now Sri Lanka.

Kohli brought up the milestone with a single off Perera in the 168th over as India (566/4) led by 361 runs over the visitors in the final session on Day 3.

He also joined former South Africa captain Graeme Smith and Rahul Dravid in 12th spot in the list of most double hundreds by batsmen. The list is headed by the legendary Don Bradman (12), followed by Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara (11) and Lara (9).
