3. Virat Kohli takes centre stage
Rohit’s dismissal brought India’s best batsman, Virat Kohli, to the crease. Kohli and Rahane looked a bit jittery at first when it came to running between the wickets and the Delhi-born batsman escaped a run out as well.
Thereafter, the Indian batsman slowly got into the grove, and played some exceptional shots in his innings.
He was cautious at first, but gradually upped the ante and played freely towards the end of the Indian innings.
