Prasanna S: "This is a harsh reality check for India. Time and again they failed against quality spin in home but somehow got unnoticed. The test series against South Africa last year was forgotten because we won it, but we lost our fair share of wickets against spin. But glad this is just the first game and they can regroup from here."

Sodhi to Jadeja, OUT, Sodhi has taken a blinder! His team-mates mob him in ecstatic celebration! Jadeja went on the front foot and closed the face of the bat to play on the leg side, the leading edge lobbed towards Sodhi's left and he covered a lot of ground and dived pretty much full length to get his hands under the ball before it hit the turf
RA Jadeja c & b Sodhi 0 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
Ganesh Tiwari: "Kane Williamson always talked about spin-bowling when he landed in INDIA for this WC.... He omitted Boult and Southee.... Introduced deep batting lineup and attacking spin.... But INDIANS are playing like they are facing spin for the first time..."
amit: "On this wicket, we needed to bat it out for first five overs. But, Dhawan cross-batted, Rohit came out of crease and Raina, played like he was playing for fast bowler bouncer staying rooted to the crease. And as I type, India loses sixth. Probably the match is lost too
10.1
Sodhi to Dhoni, 1 run, Dhoni steps out and towards the off side to cover for the leg spin and turns the ball off his pads through square leg
