What happened in the previous India vs England ODI at the MCA Stadium?

Virat Kohli scored a century against England in Pune four years ago

The first ODI victory that Team India achieved at the MCA Stadium was against England in January 2017. Eoin Morgan's men batted brilliantly in the first innings and posted a 350-run total on the board. Jason Roy, Joe Root, and Ben Stokes scored a fifty each for the visitors.

In reply, the English pacers reduced the home side to 63/4. Maharashtra's local boy Kedar Jadhav then joined hands with Virat Kohli to turn the game in India's favor. The two batsmen had a 200-run fifth-wicket stand.

After both returned to the Indian dressing room, Hardik Pandya, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Ravindra Jadeja contributed to reach the target with three wickets and 11 balls to spare.
