Virat Kohli's ODI comeback
Virat Kohli will be playing an ODI match after a long time. He last played an ODI against Sri Lanka in August 2024. After that series, he endured a rough patch of form in Test cricket where he failed miserably during India's home Test season and the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
In the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia, Kohli started well with a brilliant hundred in Perth. But his form dipped afterwards as he was constantly dismissed in the same fashion by outside edging the ball behind the wickets.
England cross the 300-run mark
Earlier, England won the toss and batted first on a good batting surface. All of their top six batters got starts but were unable to convert them into big ones. Joe Root emerged as England's top-run scorer as he got some crucial ODI runs under his belt.
Root scored 69 off 72 balls while Ben Duckett struck a fiery 65 off 56 balls at the top. Skipper Jos Buttler got a good start but was dismissed for 34. Liam Livingstone smashed a late cameo of 41 from 32 balls to take England to 304.
