Second Ind vs. Eng one-dayer
Well India have won 14 one day matches in succession chasing a target. The match at Faridabad was a close one, Freddy won the toss and chose to bat first. England set a target of 227 for India. Kevin Pietersen and Strauss played responsible knocks to achieve the total. Romesh Powar bowled a tight line and took 3 crucial wickets. India started positively with the openers sharing a 61 run stand. Then all hell broke loose, and the score read 90/5.
Suresh Raina and Dhoni did the rescue act and saved India the blushes. Raina top-scored with 81 and Dhoni scored 36 odd runs to guide India home safely.
Mr. Chapell a message for you-
"The top order should fire properly, the tail won't click each and every time so select the team properly.

Kiran More,
Drop Sehwag and give Dada a chance.
