India won the toss and decided to bat first. Dhawan was dismissed cheaply and then Kohli was run-out after scoring a half century. The chief architect of India’s batting were Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane. Rohit scored a century and Rahane scored 89. India managed to score 308 runs but should have scored more than this, considering the start.
Here are some best tweets on this innings:

Sehwag didn’t get to bat at 4 in tests before retirement. Dhoni made his name as a finisher, needs to do a job as finisher. No freebies.
