Ahmedabad: Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli chased down the required 77 runs in 15.3 overs as India completed a nine-wicket victory to take a 1-0 lead against England on the fifth day of the first Test at Sardar Patel Stadium at Motera in Ahmedabad on Monday.
Kevin Pietersen took a good catch at long-on to dismiss Virender Sehwag off Graeme Swann to deny India a ten-wicket victory.
Swann bowled a loopy off-spinner around off, Sehwag came down the track for a big shot over long on but failed to get the timing right. It balloons in the air and Pietersen took the catch over his head. The backward momentum pushed him towards the ropes but he did well to maintain the balance.
Sehwag and Pujara brought up the Indian fifty in the eighth over.
