After winning the Test and T20 series, India also got off to a great start in the ODI series. In the first ODI of the series, Virat Kohli’s team lost 1-0 to England and took a 1-0 lead.
India batted first at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune and scored 316 of five. Shekhar Dhawan has played the biggest role in this race. But the repentance of the century remained with him. The cricketer, who lost his place in the T20, played a 96-run inning in one go. He hit first and was on the wicket to 36.1 overs. His 106-ball innings were arranged with 11 limits and two sixes.
Apart from this, captain Virat Kohli, Lokesh Rahul and Krunal Pandia all played an important role in hitting. The anointed Krunal picked up the fifth with just 26 balls. He now holds the record for the fastest fifty in his ODI debut. The first was John Morris from England. He spent half a century with 35 balls against New Zealand in 1990. In the end, playing 31 balls, Krunal was undefeated in 56 runs.
Among the rest, Rahul made 62 of 43 balls. Kohli made 58 of 60 balls. 26 runs came from Rohit Sharma’s bat.
England got off to a great start with Jason Roy and Johnny Bearstore opening the innings with 135 runs. But they couldn’t keep up with the beginning. England’s innings were reduced to 42.1 overs. Johnny Bairstow scored the most 94 runs for the team. 47 runs came from Roy’s bat.
India and England will meet again next Friday in the second ODI of the series.
