India England Indore ODI

IND v ENG, 2nd ODI, Indore: India beat England by 54 runs (IND: 2-0)

Nov 17, 2008

India defeated England by 54 runs in the second One-Day International and took a 2-0 lead in the seven-match Hero Honda Cup at Indore on Monday.
Chasing a victory target of 293 runs, England were bowled out for 238 runs in 47 overs that enabled India to take a 2-0 lead in the seven-match series. Yuvraj starred both with the bat and ball, scoring his 10th ODI century and then taking 4/28 to stun England.
Earlier, Yusuf Pathan slammed his maiden ODI fifty off 29 balls after Yuvraj Singh's magnificent century to take India to 292/9 in 50 overs.
Pathan hit four sixes and two fours in his rapid fire knock and scored 18 runs off the last over of the Indian innings bowled by Steve Harmison.
Yuvraj hit 15 fours and two sixes in his magnificent knock of 118 runs off 122 balls, 10th ODI century, and was instrumental in saving India, who were rattled after losing three quick wickets. Singh was dismissed by Stuart Broad trying to make optimum use of the third powerplay taken by India, Yuvraj went for a big shot but edged it to keeper Matt Prior to take a simple catch.

IND v ENG, 2nd ODI, Indore: Yuvraj unsure for second ODI

Nov 17, 2008

After mauling England with a margin of 158 runs, India will go into the second one-dayer with the confidence of putting yet another dominating performance in Indore on Monday.
India, though, have a reason to worry as their main architect of the Rajkot win Yuvraj Singh is doubtful for the match in Indore. Yuvraj, who made the England attack look pedestrian en-route his century, pulled a back muscle and batted with a runner during the first one-dayer.
The flamboyant left-hander missed the training session Sunday and is unsure for Monday's match . "There is improvement in Yuvraj's condition, but we will take a final call on him before the match," Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni told reporters.
India will also be without Ishant Sharma, who has been rested for the second one-dayer due to an ankle sprain he suffered during the Test series against Australia. India, however, can rest easy about their pace department as Zaheer Khan and Munaf Patel knocked off England’s top-order in the Rajkot ODI.
England on the other hand will have to improve on many counts and will need to get their act together, if they are fancying their chances against hosts. England’s new skipper Kevin Pietersen, who started his tenure on a high winning the series against South Africa 4-0, will have plenty to think about the team combination.
