India beats England in first ODI

One-day internationals India
by sportbloggeradi (U13679628) 14 November 2008
comment on the article

Sehwag (85 runs of 73 balls) and Gambhir (51 runs of 63 balls) had built up the stage for a high scoring innings.The indian middle order except Yusuf Pathan (0) toyed with the English bowlers to post a mammoth 387 for 5 of 50 overs.Yuvraj remained unbeaten(138 runs of 78 balls)and was at his destructive best and deserved the congratulations received from the England team at the innings break. England batsmen were clueless and lost wickets to good bowling combined with abd shot selection.India are now one up in the 7 match ODI series.

@starniki

control ur uncontrolled silly & snotty banter!!

India will win no doubt, but don't degrade broad or anyone else for that matter.. had it not been for Yuvraj today (with both bat & bowl) England might just have won!
