England v India – India post 234 runs on the board in the 3rd One Day International -  Match Update
India after going down 1-0 in the ongoing five-match one-series against hosts England aimed to level the series in the third game at Kennington Oval, London when they were put into bat after http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 won the toss. By the end of their innings, the Indians
managed to post 234 runs on the board against the formidable English.
However, earlier in the day the Indians had a disastrous start to their innings when on the fourth delivery of the first over they lost their opener http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ajinkya-Rahane-c970, who walked back to the pavilion without scoring a run.
Then when the Indian tally was just nine they suffered the loss of another wicket in the sixth over when the inform batsman http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Dravid-c2229 was run-out after scoring only two runs.
With two wickets down on just nine runs India were in trouble, things took a turn for the worse when opener http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Parthiv-Patel-c2159 lost his wicket after scoring just three runs when he had his stumps shattered by a sensational delivery bowled by English striker James
Anderson in the seventh over, followed by the wicket of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/C-Kieswetter-c1206 off the bowling of Anderson after scoring seven runs off 18 deliveries.
At the time of his departure the tourists had managed to post 25 runs on the board for the loss of four wickets. With the top four batsmen back in the pavilion things were looking bleak for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 as they were desperately seeking a big innings from their
batsmen to counter the English pacers.
It was then http://www.senore.com/Cricket/RA-Jadeja-c2238 forged a handy partnership
with his skipper to pull India from the pits of doom.
Dhoni clobbered 69 runs off 103 deliveries while Jadeja smashed 78 runs off 89 deliveries as the batsmen helped their side post a total of 234 runs on the board.
With a target of 235 runs, England will surely have to bat sensibly when they come out in their innings in a bid to take a 2-0 lead in the series.
