India have finally won their first toss in the series at Headingley, after losing in Trent Bridge and Lord's. Skipper Virat Kohli opted to bat against England in the third Test and they went in with an unchanged playing eleven.
Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer reacted to Kohli's toss win after losing consecutive tosses in England. He had lost 8 tosses in a row as Test captain in England before winning at Headingley.

Jaffer posted a meme from the movie Sholay and wrote, "Root looking at the coin after Kohli wins the toss???? #ENGvIND." Dharmendra, who plays the role of Veeru, can be seen looking at the coin which has heads on both sides in the movie.
Even Kohli was surprised after winning the toss and he said, "It's a surprise I've won the toss. We're batting first. Looks firm and without grass and runs on the board will set this up. We're going in with the same XI."
This is the first time Kohli has won the toss in Tests since the Chennai Test earlier this year in February against Joe Root-led England side.
