Nevertheless, his comeback was short-lived as he was trapped lbw by Jofra Archer for five runs off six deliveries.<\/span><\/p>\n Despite Kohli\u2019s failure, India registered a cushty six-wicket win. Shubman Gill led the chase with 80 off 75 balls before retiring hurt with cramps, while Axar Patel (57* off 52) and Washington Sundar (52* off 63) remained unbeaten with half-centuries to guide the visitors to the 259-run goal in 45.2 overs.<\/span><\/p>\n Former India batter Ambati Rayudu believes Virat Kohli\u2019s early dismissal in the primary ODI was a results of returning to international cricket after a lengthy break. Kohli missed a full delivery and was trapped lbw, but Rayudu feels the veteran batter will regain his rhythm with more game time. <\/span><\/p>\n Speaking on Sony Sports Network, Rayudu said: <\/span>\u201cIt happens at times whenever you come to play international cricket after a protracted gap, or should you come to play against extra pace. Your vision is at all times on the length. You miss the fuller ball at times. When he plays a little bit cricket, he’ll hit this ball easily through midwicket. Similar to Shubman Gill hit a 4, Virat Kohli can even be seen hitting that.\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n India and England will face off within the second ODI at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff on Thursday, July 16.<\/span><\/p>\n Get the most recent cricket news here, like us on Facebook<\/a>, and follow us on Twitter<\/a> and Instagram <\/a> for more such updates.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
