6th Odi India vs England (video)

Posted by J at Thursday, September 06, 2007

Sachin and Saurav got yet another 100 run partnership i.e., 150

Sachin Socred 94 of 81 balls yet again he fell short for his century!

S.Ganguly was in form and looked as if this pair might finish the match and take us home for no loss. But Ganguly got out caught by K.Pietersen of S.Broad excellent spell.

Sachin on the other hand was amazing with his batting watching him play brought back the memories when India had chased the similar target of 325.

We got to a better start this time but struggled in middle overs after S.Ganguly and S.Tendulkar got out.

But later in the stage,

Robin Uthappa played a nerveless innings to guide India to a thrilling two-wicket win with two balls to spare. Uthappa hit an unbeaten 47 that capped a brilliant collective batting performance and his innings helped India overhaul a challenging England target of 317 and level the 7-match NatWest Series 3-3. The 21-year-old right-hander from Bangalore, who normally opens the batting, came in when India were 234 for 5 and needed another 83 from the last nine overs. The youngster combined with Mahendra Singh Dhoni (35) to take the fight to the England camp, and despite the loss of his more illustrious partner, kept his cool to hit the winning runs in the final over.The visitors needed 8 runs from the four balls off Stuart Broad and Uthappa scooped a full toss to fine leg boundary before driving a volley to long off, triggering wild celebrations among the Indian players and fans.
