IND v ENG Seventh ODI, Lord's: England beat India by seven wickets to clinch the NatWest series 4-3

Fifties from Kevin Pietersen and Paul Collingwood guided England to a comfortable series-clinching win over India in the seventh and final one-day international at Lords on Saturday.
Chasing a modest 188 for victory, England romped hom in the 37th over after India had been bowled out for 187 (47.3 overs). Mahendra Singh Dhoni (50) and Sachin Tendulkar (30) top-scored for India.
The England chase was led by Kevin Pietersen (71 not out) and skipper Paul Collingwood (64 not out) who waded their way out of trouble after initial set backs. Two crucial umpiring shockers by Pakistans Aleem Daar, earlier in the Indian innings, sent back skipper Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar as vital stages of the game and India never recovered from their loss.
In reply, India did well to remove openers Luke Wright and Matt Prior after RP Singh had caught them in the first over while Ian Bell (36) was run out. However, Pietersen and Collingwood both made half centuries to script an England win. Andrew Flintoff, who passed a fitness test on his left ankle, claimed 3-45 as India folded for 187 in 47.3 overs. He removed Tendulkar and Dravid. Dimitri Mascarenhas also chipped in with 3-23 and James Anderson took two wickets.

IND v ENG Seventh ODI, Lord's: England may drop Luke Wright at Lord's ODI

England debutant Luke Wright migth be axed for Saturday's series-decider against India at Lord's should allrounder Andrew Flintoff prove his fitness.
Wright showed at The Oval that he could become Flintoff's successor with his hard-hitting 38-ball fifty on debut. Flintoff, batted for more than half an hour in the Nursery Ground nets on Thursday and is scheduled to bowl tomorrow at England batsmen ahead of Saturday's final game.
Flintoff has been troubled again by his left ankle and England will be monitoring his progress for the Lord's game with the series tied 3-3.
