Virat Kohli made batting look easy in India’s first ODI against New Zealand in Auckland on Wednesday. The star batter scored 74 runs off 51 balls to help India win the match by five wickets (DLS) and take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series. India had to chase a revised target of 143 runs in 32 overs. Kohli made sure there was no late drama as India reached the target in just 22.4 overs. Kohli hit 13 fours and a six during his innings. His shots through the covers and pulls were among the highlights of his knock.
