Recovering strongly from the early jolt given by devastating spell of Mohammad Aamir, Men In Blue notched a five-wicket victory over Men In Green.

If Mohammad Aamir impressed with his ferocious opening spell, it was Team India's most bankable star Virat Kohli, with his composed and gritty 49, ensured his side reach home without further trouble.
