England recover to set decent total
England were in danger of rolling out cheaply but some lower order resistance helped the visitors set India 241 to win.
England 240 all out
Ravi Bopara, Ian Bell and Owais Shah contributed substantially to help England set India a challenging total to win the third ODI in Kanpur. However, given the way the wicket has shaped up and the kind of form India’s batsmen are in, the task would not be too daunting for MS Dhoni’s men.
Teams
India: Virender Sehwag, G Gambhir, SK Raina, MS Dhoni (capt & wk), Yuvraj Singh, RG Sharma, YK Pathan, Harbhajan Singh, Z Khan, I Sharma, MM Patel
England: IR Bell, MJ Prior (wk), OA Shah, KP Pietersen (capt), A Flintoff, PD Collingwood, SR Patel, RS Bopara, SCJ Broad, GP Swann, JM Anderson
The match, reduced to 49-overs-a-side will start at 9.45 am.
