Wrecker-In-Chief James Anderson Departs Virat Kohli For 7th Time In Tests - Watch Video

India vs England: In Test cricket, James Anderson has departed Virat Kohli seven times and 10 times in total, and three times in one-day internationals.

New Delhi: After a dominating win in the Lord's Test, the Indian cricket team had a very poor start in the India vs England Leeds Test (India vs England, 3rd Test). Things seemed to be going in India's favour today as captain Virat Kohli won the toss and elected to bat first with an unchanged XI from the previous Test, but in just one hour on opening day of the third Test at Headingley on Wednesday, the hosts lost three quick wickets.

For England, 'King of swing' James Anderson took all three wickets of India. In his very first over, Lord's Test century wielder and India's in-form opener KL Rahul was dismissed by Anderson for a duck. After this, Test specialist Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli failed to tackle Anderson's lethal out-swinging delivery and as a result the visitors lost three wickets for just 21 runs.

James Anderson is in the form of his life as he bowled 3 maidens in 6 overs in the first one hour of the match and took 3 wickets. During this he did not bowl a single bad delivery.

In Test cricket, James Anderson has departed Virat Kohli seven times and 10 times in total, and three times in one-day internationals.

There's not much grass on the pitch at Leeds but taking advantage of the extra bounce, Anderson was able to get the prized wicket of Virat Kohli for 7.

After winning the toss, Indian captain Virat Kohli said he himself was surprised to see that he won the toss. After winning the toss, Virat Kohli chose to bat first at Headingley and then announced India's playing XI, in which once again Ravichandran Ashwin was not picked.
