India vs England | 10 Things you missed - From Virat Kohli's 5th toss loss to Shikhar Dhawan's Bhangra
Yes! We are back to tell that you haven't watched the match closely and have missed a lot of things because you had to open the door as your food order arrived. Don't worry, we have got your back. Here are 10 things you missed from the Day 1 of the 5th Test between India and England.
Hanuma Vihari: The 292nd Indian cap!
Pandya was kicked out of the starting line-up and the Indian cricket team decided to throw Hanuma Vihari into the battlefield. You ask why he was bought into the Indian cricket team? Well, he has an average of 59.79, which is the highest average amongst the active cricketers.
Proud moment for Hanuma Vihari as he becomes the 292nd player to represent #TeamIndia in Tests.#ENGvIND pic.twitter.com/M5qh0Y54E0

The losing streak continues!
Looks like the luck is not on our side yet again. This is the 5th time Virat Kohli has lost the toss in this series! Also, Joe Root is the first captain to win all tosses in a five-Test series since Mark Taylor against England in Ashes 1998/99.
Well deserved respect!
When Alastair Cook came out to bat in his last Test match the Indian cricket team gave him a well-deserved guard of honour. It isn’t easy to score 12,000 Test runs!

Ishant Sharma: The master of expressions!
Ishant Sharma has made headlines with his expressions, you do remember his facial gesture while trying to mock Steve Smith? Here is another one today.

You get a free life, he gets a free life, everyone gets a free life!
India’s slip cordon continued to have problems as Ajinkya Rahane and Virat Kohli dropped Alastair Cook and Moeen Ali respectively! When will this misery end?
Playground for cricketers, a dining hall for pigeons!
There is a fierce battle between the Indian bowlers and English batsmen that was going on but there were a bunch of pigeons who chose a spot near the main pitch to have their lunch. Gutsy!
Luck favours the brave!
Jasprit Bumrah literally screamed, danced, and pleaded his way to force umpire Joel Wilson in raising the finger in order to send English skipper Joe Root back into the pavilion on the first day at Oval.
Numero uno!
Wow! This is the first time an opener has scored a 50 in this series! Sums up how bad the openers have been in this series!
This is the first fifty by an opener in this series (after 30 completed innings) and it has come from Cook's bat who is playing his last Test. #ENGvIND

The celebration!
Rishabh Pant started celebrating the wicket even before he could catch the ball! Would’ve been a nightmare if he had dropped that catch!
Dhawan’s Bhangra display!
It looked like Shikhar Dhawan was in a good mood today, as he entertained the Indian crowd in the stands by showing his Bhangra moves!
