The prolific England batsman, Ian Bell, has warned his side of complacency against the depleted Indian squad as he feels the visitors still have the potential to hit back when the two sides face off each other in the second One Day International from the
five-match series at Rose Bowl, in Southampton on Tuesday, September 6.
The 29-year-old http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MS-Dhoni-c2028 and his men still have a lot of talent and pose a threat to the hosts.
"Whether, it's a young side or experienced, one thing we know about Indian cricketers is that they have a lot of ability and lot of talent and it should be a good game regardless of their injuries," Bell, a magnificent batsman himself, said on the eve of
the match.

missed the washed out opening One-Dayer of the series. Later, on Tuesday, he was ruled out of the remainder of the series. Sharma on the hand broke his right index finger on the very first ball of the series he had faced in the first ODI at http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Durham-c782. His fractured
finger is expected to take three weeks to completely recover.
"If the entire team is fit, it's very hard to break into a fit (Indian) team, so I guess guys would be desperate to take wickets and desperate to score runs," said Bell while talking to the media reporters ahead of the second ODI.
Six of the key Indian batsmen have already flown home after picking up injuries at different stages during the ongoing tour. Those include, pacers http://www.senore.com/Cricket/V-Sehwag-c2739.
India have not yet won even a single game in the ongoing tour and must be desperate to prove they are the world champions when they play http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 today. Even in Saturday’s game they had a very good chance of winning their first game against England this summer
but the rain abandoned the match after 7.2 overs of England chase.
