India's total of 387 was the last thing England would have wanted to challenge in this first match but it served as an indication that the Indians are probably playing the best cricket in the world right now and England are going to have a tough series ahead.
Singh's innings was made a little easier than necessary by 'out of sorts' England bowling and the pitch clearly assisted an attacking batsman, but when all said and done it was a truly match winning and thoroughly entertaining knock, no matter what side you supported.

England skipper Kevin Pietersen, tasted defeat for the first time as Captain in an official England match and although he top scored for England with 63, he must have been hugely disappointed with his teams lacklustre show.
Pietersen could only rely on late support from Ravi Bopara (58 no) to help run down the huge Indian total. The next match comes up pretty quickly for England and they go into it as 7/4 underdogs. India are 1/2 odds on to win. Following India's huge win the Bookmakers have made them 2/9 to win the series, with England at 9/2.
