After an appalling start, England middle-order batted well to help the team cross the 200-run mark in the 2nd ODI, being played at the Feroz Shah Kotla Cricket Stadium.
The English team started with the same composition that suffered a resounding defeat at the hands of their opponents. With the English skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/AN-Cook-c1026 winning the toss and electing to bat first, the start to the innings was catastrophic with him being
the first one to depart tamely, as early as the first over.
Cook slashed at a short and wide delivery off http://www.senore.com/Cricket/V-Kohli-c2737,
who made no mistake.
It was the third over when the first runs came from the bat off http://www.senore.com/Cricket/IJL-Trott-c1576. Trott then scored four boundaries off Praveen’s 3rd over, kick starting the team’s charge. He quickly reached to 34 before Vinay Kumar enticed him to play away from
his body, which resulted in a simple chance for wicket-keeper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MS-Dhoni-c2028.
Bopara then joined http://www.senore.com/Cricket/RA-Jadeja-c2238.
Just as it the tourists got some sort of momentum, both fell in successive overs. While Bopara was caught lbw by Ravicandran Ashwin, Pietersen was send packing by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Umesh-Yadav-c94625, with Dhoni taking a good low catch.
This had the batting side five down at the score of 121 and left http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013’s newest prodigy, Jonny Bairstow to battle out with the long list of bowling all-rounders.
The youngster held the innings well and got good support from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Huzefa-Mohammed-Patel-c63657 remained the aggressor, striking two hefty blows in the process.
However, he failed to put the finishing touches to the game and departed after making 42.
200 came in the 42nd over and the visitors will be banking on the power-hitting of Bairstow to guide them to a fighting total.
