   ​BIRMINGHAM, England (AP) — India finally won on its tour of the United Kingdom after handing England its first one-day international defeat at Edgbaston in 12 years on Tuesday.England fought back from 107-6 to be 258 all out but couldn’t defend it. A calm and collected India paced the run chase superbly and reached 262-4 to win by six wickets with 28 balls remaining.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThe victory revives what has been a dismal tour for India. The Twenty20 world champion was blanked in that format by Ireland in Belfast 2-0 and by England 4-0, surrendering its No. 1 ranking.But ODI reinforcements in the shape of captain Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Jaspit Bumrah and Lokesh Rahul — many of whom hadn’t played for weeks — proved too good for England at the start of a three-match series.The only blemish for India was Gill retiring hurt on 80 with a suspected right hamstring injury. Gill was well poised for his third century in his last five internationals for India until he had to hobble off.___AP cricket: https://apnews.com/hub/cricket
