1st ODI: Kohli Out With Knee Injury As England Elect To Bat First
Vidarbha Cricket Association: Virat Kohli missed out because of a right knee injury as England won the toss and elected to bat first in the opening ODI of the three-match series against England at the Vidarbha Cricket Association (VCA) Stadium here on Thursday.
With Kohli out, India decided to give debut caps to opener Yashasvi Jaiswal and pace-bowling allrounder Harshit Rana. Jaiswal was handed his first cap by head coach Gautam Gambhir while senior pacer Mohammed Shami did the honours for Harshit Rana.
India captain Rohit Sharma informed at the toss that Kohli had suffered an injury to his right knee during practice on Wednesday evening and therefore was withdrawn from the first ODI. It's a big setback for India as the team management would have liked their most experienced batter to have played all three ODIs ahead of the upcoming Champions Trophy.
