Live Cricket : India vs England, 2nd ODI, India England Series, Live Scorecard

November 17th, 2008 5 Comments   Posted in Hero Honda Cup, Live Matches, One Day Match

Still long way to go in ODI series and if anyone start to feel that England is no contest, then don’t be and wait for at least another couple of matches. England is a decent team with best all rounders in business and they will not let it (series) so easily. Both the teams have fitness concerns from beginning of the series and England has got some good news with Sidebottom available for selection while India may miss Yuvraj in this match who suffered back strain during 1st match. Ishant will miss this game also and no news about his recovery.

Not sure how many would like one sided matches like previous one and definitely I’m not the one who prefers one sided matches but that’s okay once in a while, when you can watch an awesome innings like Yuvi’s century.

Toss: Mahendra Singh Dhoni has won the toss and India will
bat. India are unchanged, which means Yuvraj Singh is fit. England are unchanged as well.

India: 1 Virender Sehwag, 2 Gautam Gambhir, 3 Suresh Raina, 4 Yuvraj Singh, 5 Mahendra Singh Dhoni (capt & wk), 6 Rohit Sharma, 7 Yusuf Pathan, 8 Harbhajan Singh, 9 Zaheer Khan, 10 RP Singh, 11 Munaf Patel.

England: 1 Matt Prior (wk), 2 Ian Bell, 3 Owais Shah, 4 Kevin Pietersen (capt), 5 Andrew Flintoff, 6 Paul Collingwood, 7 Ravi Bopara, 8 Samit Patel, 9 Stuart Broad, 10 James Anderson, 11 Steve Harmison.

 India has just defeated world champions Australia 2-0 in 4 match test series few day back and not without much of rest, they are back to take on England, who defeated South Africa 4-1 a month ago in 5 match ODI series. Both teams are scheduled to play 7 ODI’s and 2 Tests during next 50 days with a break between ODI and Test series for Champions League.

This will be the first International tour for Kevin Pietersen as captain and will be a real test for England (and KP). England team will be under pressure even though they are not ready to confess after their humiliating defeat other day and will look forward to forget that by registering a win here today.  Also England would like to use this tour to agree on set of players who will be part of Ashes next year as they don’t have much of International cricket to prepare themselves for Ashes next year apart from West Indies tour of England next year, so this tour will be very important for them.

Team India has delivered good results in ODI after Dhoni took over the captaincy from Dravid and climbing up the rankings and series win might help them to move two places higher in ICC rankings. Also It will be a good contest between two captains KP and Dhoni.

I wish we will have a competitive series which will not only lift the game but keep all of us tuned to live cricket channels and live cricket streams.

 England: 1 Ian Bell, 2 Matt Prior (wk), 3 Owais Shah, 4 Kevin Pietersen (capt), 5 Andrew Flintoff, 6 Paul Collingwood, 7 Samit Patel, 8 Ravi Bopara, 9 Stuart Broad, 10 Steve Harmison, 11 James Anderson.
