Chennai ODI Live!!! Pakistan win toss, ask India to bat
December 30, 2012
Pakistan won the toss and invited India to bat first in the opening one day international in Chennai on Sunday.
Earlier, a damp pitch delayed the start of the game.
"It's been raining for the last two days. We want to utilise that early moisture," reasoned captain Misbah-ul-Haq.
MS Dhoni, his Indian counterpart, concurred.
"We were looking to field first. There's some moisture in the wicket," he said.
