After a couple of days of confusion, and curiosity over Virat Kohli missing the first ODI against England earlier this week, the Indian star batsman was included in the playing XI in the second ODI.

Kohli came back to the team in place of Shreyas Iyer, who had to make way for him. Iyer did not bat in the first ODI as India won the match without losing a wicket.

The change in the team was announced by skipper Rohit Sharma after winning the toss and deciding to bowl first. “Virat Kohli comes back in for Shreyas Iyer.” He said.

Before the start of the match, there were questions about Kohli’s availability due to a groin issue, a few fans had also added that the former skipper’s time in team India was over and that he was dropped from the team.

Several former cricketers including Kapil Dev and Venkatesh Prasad had also advocated dropping Kohli from the team after his poor run of form continued in the Test match and T20Is against England this month.
