Team India pulled off a comprehensive 10-wicket win over England at The Oval on Tuesday.

Team India kicked off their three-match ODI series against England in grand fashion with a comprehensive victory in the first match at The Oval on Tuesday (July 12). Indian pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah played a starring role with a sensational six-wicket spell after Rohit Sharma won the toss and opted to bowl first.

Jasprit Bumrah (6/19) and Mohammad Shami (3/31) justified their captain's decision by bowling magnificently in the powerplay. The duo breathed fire with the ball in their opening spells and left the English batters searching for places to hide with their prodigious swing bowling.

England were reeling under pressure after being reduced to 26/5 in eight overs. At this juncture, English skipper Jos Buttler (30) tried to salvage the innings but Shami dismissed him in the 15th over. England kept losing wickets at regular intervals and were eventually skittled out for 110 in 25.2 overs.

A clinical Team India made quick work of the paltry target as they scaled down 114 in just 18.4 overs to win the match by 10 wickets. Rohit Sharma (76* in 58 balls) led the way with a dominating knock while Shikhar Dhawan (31) played the anchor role to perfection.

Speaking at the post-match presentation Rohit Sharma reflected on his team's commanding all-round performance, saying:

"Looking at the pitch and the overhead conditions, it was the right call to make (at the toss). We never really worry about the overhead conditions. We saw that during the T20Is as well. When there's something on offer, we came out and did the job.
"Today was more suitable for the fast bowlers. When you play in conditions like that, you need to understand what kind of assistance bowlers are going to get and get your fields right in those situations. We know the quality of the bowlers and have to back them all the time."
