"Dhawan's mother is stable and is recovering well at the moment."

India continued their impressive run in Sri Lanka, recording a 168-run victory in the fourth one-day international on Thursday to go 4-0 up in the five-match series.

The two teams will meet in the fifth ODI at the Premadasa Stadium in Colombo later on Sunday, before playing a Twenty20 international on Wednesday at the same venue.

Sri Lanka were also whitewashed 3-0 by Virat Kohli's side in the test series.
