PremiumIndia vs England 1st ODI highlights: Half centuries from Shreyas Iyer (59), Shubman Gill (87) and Axar Patel (52) helped India beat England by four wickets and take a 1-0 series lead in Nagpur on Thursday. Chasing England's 248, India were in a spot of bother after losing openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma cheaply.
However, it was the 94-run stand between Iyer and Gill that resurrected the Indian innings. After Iyer was dismissed Gill forged a 108-run stand with Axar to take India closer to victory.
Earlier, Harshit Rana (3/53) starred on debut along with Ravindra Jadeja (3/26) as India bundled out England 248 in 47.4 overs. Mohammed Shami, Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel bagged a wicket apiece.
Opting to bat first, England were off to a solid start with a 71-run stand for the opening stand. However, the run out of Phil Salt (43), triggered the English collapse as the visitors lost wickets at regular intervals.
Skipper Jos Buttler (51), Jacob Bethell (51) and Ben Duckett (32) tried to put some resistance, but the Indian bowlers were on top of their game. Virat Kohli missed the game due to a 'sore right knee'.

Since the ODI World Cup in 2023, to the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, India have played six ODIs and will play three more, the first of which starts in Nagpur today. It's an unusual gap between the two ICC events. Nevertheless, it is what it is and Rohit Sharma's men will be hoping make the opportunities count.
With 14 wickets in the T20I series, Varun Chakaravarthy has been added to the Indian ODI squad, keeping in mind the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. A good show might see the Tamil Nadu spinner become a late entry in India's already announced CT 2025 squad.
India are coming into the series on the back of a hugely-successful 4-1 T20I series win over England.
Hello and welcome to the live coverage of the first ODI between India and England in Nagpur. India will play three ODIs against England which will serve as a preparation for Champions Trophy for both sides.
