Vijay century gives India opening honours

Murali Vijay carried his bat and was unbeaten on 122 at the end of the day. MS Dhoni too got to half-century in the last over of the day as India ended strongly at 259/4. The duo had put on an unbeaten 81-run stand for the 5th wicket that helped make it India's day. The second new ball did little to help the hosts and with that last challenge overcome, India finished with the day's honours.

Murali Vijay and MS Dhoni were not too circumspect and scored quite freely. Dhoni, in particular, looked very positive. Vijay went after the off-spin of Moeen Ali but was happy to play second fiddle in the stand. The duo added a brisk 50-plus stand take India to a decent total.
