Virat Kohli, who starred with the bat in the last match failed to get going in this game. He scored a battling 149 in the first innings at Edgbaston bring his first hundred in England. He backed with another fighting half-century in the second innings. Despite his heroic effort, India lost the match by 31 runs.

India will hope another brilliant knock from the talismanic batsman. However, rather than concentrating on individual milestones, Virat Kohli is keen to beat England.

It is not like we are getting rolled over – every Test match that we are playing is competitive. I feel as a team we are just about there. We are in the zone where we are very positive. Getting to captain the country, I feel, is an honour and I definitely leave no stones unturned when it comes to that,” Kohli said.
