Rohit Sharma, Gautam Gambhir Blasted As Shreyas Iyer Says He Only Played As Virat Kohli Was Injured

India's nearly comfortable 4-wicket victory against England in the first ODI of the 3-match series saw some proven performers rise to the occasion. Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer were the top-scoring batters for India on Thursday, scoring 87 and 59 respectively while skipper Rohit Sharma flopped yet again. However, the team also missed the ever-reliant No. 3 Virat Kohli in the game due to an injury, while Yashasvi Jaiswal made his ODI debut. However, a rather shocking development took place after the conclusion of the match as Shreyas Iyer revealed that he wasn't originally supposed to play the match.

"Knee Swelled Once We...": Virat Kohli Injury Update Increases Rohit Sharma's Headache

It isn't often that Virat Kohli goes on to miss a match due to an injury but the talismanic batter had no option but to sit out of the first ODI against England due to a knee trouble. Kohli's knee was heavily strapped when during practice sessions ahead of the series opener but some swelling was witnessed once the players returned to the hotel. The situation prompted the team management - including skipper Rohit Sharma and head coach Gautam Gambhir - to have a Plan B ready, which was Shreyas Iyer. After Virat went on to miss the first ODI, a big update has emerged for the second match.

Virat Kohli In Visible Pain While Warming Up Ahead Of 1st ODI vs England. Video

The injury suffered by senior batter Virat Kohli ahead of Thursday's first ODI against England in Nagpur may turn out to be a minor setback for India as the issue does not look serious and the former India captain is likely to be back in the next match. India captain Rohit Sharma informed at the toss that Kohli had injured his right knee during practice on Wednesday evening and therefore was withdrawn from the first ODI. Though both the Indian team management and Kohli himself would feel disappointed in losing the opportunity to play the match, the injury seems minor.

How Shreyas Iyer Went From Watching A Movie To Replacing Virat Kohli For India vs England 1st ODI

While watching a movie and contemplating "extending his night," a call from India captain Rohit Sharma alerted him about replacing Virat Kohli in the first ODI against England and Shreyas Iyer channeled all his recent domestic circuit experience to score his 19th ODI fifty, playing a pivotal role in India's chase on Thursday. Iyer walked in when India were shaken twice early to slip to 19 for two chasing 249, but produced a stunning counter-attack hitting two sixes and nine fours to make 59 off 36 balls, which took the wind out of England's sails.

"Tried To Be...": Shubman Gill Reveals Mentality After Walking In To Bat At 19/2 In 1st ODI vs England

As India slumped to 19/2 in the sixth over chasing a modest target of 249 in 50 overs, all Shubman Gill was thinking of was to stay positive and not to take too many risks and not get too defensive. Player of the Match Gill did all these things, top-scored for India with 87 and shared crucial partnerships with Shreyas Iyer (59) and Axar Patel (52) to help India to a four-wicket win over England in the first ODI of the three-match series at the Vidarbha Cricket Association (VCA) Stadium here on Thursday.

"Heard There Was...": Ravi Shastri Spills The Beans On Virat Kohli Injury That Forced Star Out Of 1st ODI

Cricket fans were in for a shock on Thursday afternoon after Rohit Sharma announced at the toss, ahead of the 1st India vs England ODI, that Virat Kohli would not be playing the match. Ahead of the Champions Trophy, the three ODIs against England are the only match in the format for the Rohit Sharma-led side. With Kohli missing one of the matches, his preparation time for the Champions Trophy has been affected.  A sore right knee forced Virat Kohli out of the first ODI against England in Nagpur on Thursday but the extent of the problem was not immediately clear.

Joe Root's Poor Form In ODIs Continue, Falls To Ravindra Jadeja On Return To Format

England batter Joe Root's return to ODIs was a disappointing one as he continued his poor run against spinner Ravindra Jadeja during the first ODI at Nagpur on Thursday. During his 31-ball stay at the crease after England lost wicket of Phil Salt, Root's scoring opportunities were restricted well by India. Root could score just one boundary against Kuldeep Yadav. He was trapped leg-before wicket by Jadeja, breaking a 44-run stand between skipper Jos Buttler and Root.  Against Jadeja in 10 innings in ODIs, Root has scored 133 runs in 115 balls and has been dismissed four times.

Virat Kohli's 1130-Day Rare Streak Ends With Knee Injury, Concerns Rise For India Ahead Of Champions Trophy

From the moment, India captain Rohit Sharma announced Virat Kohli will miss the 1st ODI against England in Nagpur on Thursday, concerns are rising among the Indian fans with the Champions Trophy coming up. BCCI said in an official update that Kohli was unavailable for selection in the first ODI in Nagpur due to a sore right knee. Injuries have been a rarity for Virat Kohli, who is a bench mark in terms of fitness. In fact, this is the first time since the South Africa vs India Test in Johannesburg (January 3-6, 2022) that Kohli has missed a match due to injury. That makes it first time in 1130 days that Kohli missed a match due to injury.
