    More from Virat Kohli on India's win and his century: "My role in the team is to bat through and let the power hitters around come in and play their shots.

    "I really commend the way Suresh Raina and Shikhar Dhawan played today to help us get to the score we did.

    "It's also a huge thank you to the fans. Their support was fantastic and the atmosphere today electric, so this is for them as well."

  4. Captain's viewpublished at 11:47 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    India captain MS Dhoni: "It was a very good performance, started by the batsmen. It's needed here to put runs on the board and give the bowlers the cushion of that extra 20 runs.

    "Over here the first 10 overs aren't that easy and the ball varies in pace and bounce.

    "It was important to get a long partnership early on and then Raina and Kohli capitalised late on.

    "I felt all the boys had a good performance with the bat and the ball and that's very important at the start of a long World Cup."

    "Pakistan have a lot to do to improve. Only one bowler showed pace, and the rest need to be more disciplined. India are a force to be reckoned with because they'll always have strong batting. Ashwin bowled well today, he turned it when the Pakistan slow bowlers couldn't."

  6. Captain's viewpublished at 11:46 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    Pakistan skipper Misbah-ul-Haq: "They played well, posted a good total and bowled well. When we lost wickets in the middle it made it hard.

    "The pitch was very good, and our bowlers pulled them back well in the last 10 overs. They might have scored more. Two or three of our batsmen didn't get in and you can't say much about that.

    "Now we have to look forward, we can't think about this game and not concentrate on the next ones. We need our confidence and momentum back."

    "Pakistan never really got in the game with the bat. Their openers were kept in check by the Indian bowlers, who bowled a really disciplined line. They squeezed the pressure and then the dam burst and the wickets came. There was a huge collapse in the middle and the game was over before it was over."

  8. The biggest game...published at 11:41 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    BBC Monitoring's Vikas Pandey: "More proof that Indians are treating this match like a World Cup final. Hashtag #RealFinal is now trending on Twitter."

  9. Player reactionpublished at 11:40 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    Virat Kohli on his man of the match award: "It's probably one of the biggest honours I've ever had in my career.

    "A real important game for us to kick off the World Cup. It's a high pressure game against Pakistan, so it's huge to get a win.

    "Expectations are going to be there when you do well for your country and I like it and the pressure."

    "The crowd were 90% in favour of India and it was a canter for their side. Pakistan didn't have the firepower in spin or seam to stop India getting runs. Shikhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli found it easy to score runs - they got to 150 without breaking sweat. Then the fireworks came from Suresh Raina, who is a great talent, he is amazing and he smashes it everywhere."

    "India won in a manner which shows they were well prepared for this game. They got their head around which was the right line-up to field on this pitch at Adelaide. The two spinners did an excellent job and the wickets were shared between the group."

  14. India beat Pakistan by 76 runspublished at 11:29 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    It's all over and India have won by 76 runs. Sohail Khan is the last man to go as he hits one high in the air and Yadav takes a simple catch at mid-on.

    "Irfan is Pakistan's number eleven and he must have an extra long bat, but it looks like a toothpick in his hands."

  16. Pak 220-9 (Shami 4-35 off 9 overs)published at 11:24 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    Had Misbah got to a century, unbelievably it would have been his first in 157 ODIs. His highest score is 96 not out in all that time. Mohammad Irfan is last man in for Pakistan.

    "The bowler and captain were clear in what they wanted to do. They have shown a lot of confidence in themselves, Shami came round the wicket and dug it in short and the ball hurried onto Misbah and looped to mid-on. Good execution from the bowling group."

  18. WICKETpublished at 11:21 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    Sadly for Pakistan the one Misbah they do have is finally out. He goes for a pull shot from a short ball from Shami, but swats it to wide mid-on where Rahane snaffles it. Almost done here.

  20. Pak 220-8 (target 301)published at 11:18 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2015

    Sohail Khan keeps his mouth shut after that little episode and lets his bat do the talking with a clubbed pull for four off Yadav. That's Yadav done for the day with figures of 2-50.
