INDIA WON THIRD ODI BY 7 WICKETS

INDIAN TEAM

RANCHI ODI: It was a perfect set up for INDIAN team in third ODI where they registered a 7 wicket convincing win
against ENGLAND man of the match is "Virat Kohli".

INDIAN captain M.S.Dhoni won the toss and elected to bowl first and bowlers done their work early in their overs as all INDIAN bowlers take wickets so ENGLAND was restricted up to 156 runs and jadeja again trubles the ENGLAND batsman.

While India’s bowling has been top-notch, some of the batting problems remain. Steven Finn found his way through Ajinkya Rahane’s defence for the second time this series. Rahane has come in for Sehwag and has yet to make a healthy contribution up the order. 

His opening partner, Gautam Gambhir worked hard for 33 but threw it away trying to hit James Tredwell across the line over mid-on. Yuvraj Singh then raced to 30 with some big hits but missed a straight ball from Tredwell. 

Virat Kohli overcame a trying spell from Finn in which he top-edged a couple of bouncers over the wicketkeeper. But once set, he let loose the pulls, flicks and cover-drives that powered him to a match-winning half-century. The innings was long due, and runs for him would mean one worry less for the team management.
