In Sublime Text 3,when we press Ctrl+Shift+B, we are given the option to either do "Build and Run" or "only Build", whereas Ctrl+B executes the previously chosen operation among the two. But I want it to be like, it should directly build and run when I press Ctrl+Shift+B and only build when I press Ctrl+B like it was in Sublime Text 2. Can someone help me out?

You can use the shortcut key Ctrl+Shift+Q on Windows and Cmd+Shift+Q for Mac, to play a macro recorded by the user in Sublime Text.
Sublime Text is able to run build programs such as 'make', either when a key in pressed (F7 by default), or when a file is saved. The build system to use can be select from the Tools/Build System menu. If a project is open, the selected build system will be remembered for the project.
Quick Add Next. To add the next occurrence of the current word to the selection, use Quick Add Next, which is bound to Ctrl+D on Windows and Linux, or Command+D on OS X. Again, if you go too far, use Undo Selection (Ctrl+U, or Command+U on OS X) to step backwards.
Addings this to your sublime-keymap should result in the expected behavior:
{ "keys": ["ctrl+b"], "command": "build", "args": { "variant": "" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+b"], "command": "build", "args": { "variant": "Run" } },
However you might want to remap keep the list of options to alt+b:
{ "keys": ["alt+b"], "command": "build", "args": { "select": true } },
Not answering the question but good to know, F7 functions the same as Ctrl+b.
