After strong decision took by England cricket team to play in India by resuming the two test series, first test started today in Chennai. England captain Kevin Pieterson won the toss and chose to field without any hesitation as the conditions looked good for batting. Andrew Strauss and Alastair cook opened the innings. They both played well and gave solid partnership of 118 runs after cook falling to Harbhajan Singh.
