The first test match saw hapless performances from the star-Indian batting unit. Not only the top-order but also the middle order performed poorly in both the innings. It was the brilliance of skipper Kohli that kept India in the match with his fighting century (149 runs) in the first innings.
In England’s second innings, the Indian bowlers did their job spectacularly, as they dismissed them for 180 runs, setting up an exciting fourth-inning in the match. However, the Indian batsmen failed to reach the target and eventually lost the game by 31 runs.
The Indian captain Kohli was the standout performer in the match for India as he scored his first century in England (22nd overall). In the second innings too, Kohli scored a gritty half-century. However, failure to receive support from other Indian batsman cost India the match. Stay tuned with us for all the latest news and updates on India vs England Test Series 2018!
