Singh blasted his career’s 14th One-day International ton in the second match against England at the Barabatti Stadium in Cuttack, which India clinched by 15 runs.
Returning to the national fold after a three-year hiatus, the 35-year-old’s belligerent century is his first since the 2011 World Cup, where he emerged the Man-of-the-Series.

He along with former skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni (106) forged a 256-run fourth wicket stand to drag India out of troubled waters after England removed the top three wickets for a meagre 25, to propel India to a mammoth 381/6 after their 50 overs.
