The pink ball Test in Ahmedabad didn't start off as per India's liking as Virat Kohli lost the toss and England opted to bat first.
Interestingly, Kohli has won just 2 of the last 13 tosses against England. Moreover, 6 of the last 8 men's Tests in India have been won by the toss-winning side.
The reason why India was looking for the coin to come down in their favour was the fact that Virat has never lost a Test after winning the toss.
