    "editor1": "<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Adelaide, Jan 26. Declared Man of the Match for his quickfire unbeaten 90, India star batsman Virat Kohli said he was happy to begin preparations for the forthcoming World Twenty20 with a comfortable 37-run victory over Australia in the first of the three-match Twenty20 International (T20I) cricket series at the Adelaide Oval here on Tuesday. The T20 World Cup is scheduled to be held in March-April in India.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nYoung pacer Jasprit Bumrah starred on his T20I debut by picking up three wickets for 23 runs, while another debutant, Hardik Pandya, bagged 2\/37. Left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja was also equally effective, picking two wickets for 21 runs in four overs. Asked to bat, India scored 188\/3 in 20 overs, thanks to Virat Kohli&#39;s powerful innings of 90 not out from 55 deliveries and Suresh Raina&#39;s 41.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nIn reply, the hosts were bowled out for 151 in 19.3 overs. Captain Aaron Finch was Australia&#39;s highest scorer with a 44. &quot;I really like playing here, would like to take the pitch to everywhere I go. Happy that our T20 World Cup preparation starts from here with a win, we will go on from this game,&quot; Kohli said at the post-match presentation ceremony. &quot;It was a good batting strip, the ball came nicely onto the bat, I could play my shots. The crowd have been brilliant as well, they have supported us very well right throughout the tour,&quot; the 27-year-old added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Agency<\/p>\r\n",
