India 74-1 (10 ovs) vs England 268 | Scorecard

Virat Kohli ends all debates about his batting position as he walks in at No. 3, there was a lot of talk before the game that the captain would come in at No. 4 to give KL Rahul the number three slot.

Kohli doesn't take time to get going as he drives a full delivery from Wood through the covers for a four to get off the mark in style.

He takes a single off the next ball to thirdman before Rohit slaps a short ball from Wood through point for another four.

Woods bowls another poor delivery giving Rohit width as he again flays it through the covers for another boundary to get 13 from the over.

Pacer Liam Plunkett is brought into the attack. Kohli guides the third ball to thirdman for one before Rohit plays a handsome cover drive but is unable to beat the man in the covers.
