After winning the T20I series in the ongoing England tour, India have started the ODI series in a very strong way as the visitors thrashed the hosts by 10 wickets in the series opener of the three-match ODI series.
The Oval hosted the first game of this series last Tuesday (12th July). After the Indian captain, Rohit Sharma, sent England to bat first, the hosts were bundled out for just 110 runs in 25.2 overs.
In reply, the visitors chased down that little target in 18.4 overs without losing any wicket (114/0). With this ten wickets win, the Men in Blues have taken the 1-0 lead in this series with two to go.
