India beats England, Kohli Jadhav contributes big
In his first limited overs cricket as a full time captain, Virat Kohli led from the front (122 off 105 balls), while the local boy Kedar Jadhav scored 120 off 76 balls, and thus supporting in India registering a good three-wicket win while chasing 351 against England.
Jadhav joined Kohli in the middle, when India were 63-4, having lost Shikhar Dhawan (1), KL Rahul (8), Yuvraj Singh (15) and MS Dhoni (6). It's then, they both tackled the England bowling attack in their 200-run partnership off 147 balls.
Kohli was any way the centre of attraction and Jadhav made sure he would be more than just a side story. Although Kohli and Jadhav got out after scoring respective hundreds, India’s lower middle order - Hardik Pandya (40 not out), Ravindra Jadeja (13) and R Ashwin (15 not out) - did not throw in the towel.
