Virat Kohli is off to a good start as the captain, winning the toss in the first ODI as he elects to bowl against England in the series opener in Pune.

Veteran Yuvraj Singh makes his comeback to the ODI team after more than three years, while Dhoni will play his first match without the extra burden of captaincy after nearly 10 years in the job.

The young KL Rahul is expected to open the innings with the experienced Shikhar Dhawan, while Hardik Pandya gets the nod ahead of Ajinkya Rahane and Kedar Jadhav will play the first match in front of his home fans in Pune as he is preferred to Manish Pandey.
