- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR28.5 Yuvraj's got him! Terrific ball! Yuvraj drifts the ball into the right-hander, the length draws Bopara out of his crease, the ball dips on him and beats the batsman in flight, then it pitches and spins past the outside edge leaving Dhoni with an easy stumping to complete 133/414.3 caught! Munaf has the wicket! It was a good length ball angling across the right-hander close to the off stump, Bell tried to run it towards third man and got a faint edge, Dhoni took a low catch in front of him 79/119.1 Pietersen's gone! He tried to treat Harbhajan like he treated Yuvraj, he charged down the track and aimed for the stands at long-on, he was beaten by Harbhajan's flight and mis-hit the ball high in the air towards long-off where Zaheer took the catch, massive wicket for India 102/221.2 done in by the doosra! That's a terrific combination of flight and turn! The length drew Collingwood forward and he really had to lunge to reach the ball, it drifted away from him and he lost balance and dragged his back leg out of the crease, the ball went the other way and Dhoni whipped off the bails 106/336.2 lbw!! Flintoff's gone! Yusuf bowls a flat and straight delivery, Flintoff moves across his stumps to try and work the ball on the leg side, he misses and gets hit in front of middle stump, that's plumb and umpire Tiffen agrees, that's the second time in row that Flintoff's been lbw to a spinner while trying to hit across the line 167/543.4 Harbhajan gets ODI wicket No 200! He bowls a flat ball on off stump from over the wicket, Shah tries to loft over the long-off boundary but can't get under the ball, he hits it flat and straight to Zaheer who runs forward to take the catch 203/646.4 caught in the deep! Patel charges to loft Ishant down the ground, it's another slower ball from Ishant and Patel mis-hits it high in the air towards long-off where Raina settles under the catch and takes it easily 231/746.5 what a crazy over this is! Ishant's now on a hat-trick! Prior walks across his stumps to try and flick the ball towards long leg, he misses and the ball swings past him and clips leg stump. Two no balls, one wide that cost five, and two wickets in the over so far 231/847.5 caught! Zaheer fires a short ball at Stuart Broad who gets surprised and attempts to hook, he gets an edge which lobs up to Dhoni who takes an easy catch, England are in danger of leaving some deliveries unused 235/948.4 knocked him over! Munaf bowls on a good length and dead straight, Anderson backs away and tries to open the face, he misses and the ball knocks middle stump out of the ground, England have been dismissed with two balls to go in the innings 240/10Extras17 (lb 3, nb 5, w 9)TOTAL240 all out (48.4 Overs, RR: 4.93)Fall of wickets: 1-79 (Ian Bell, 14.3 ov), 2-102 (Kevin Pietersen, 19.1 ov), 3-106 (Paul Collingwood, 21.2 ov), 4-133 (Ravi Bopara, 28.5 ov), 5-167 (Andrew Flintoff, 36.2 ov), 6-203 (Owais Shah, 43.4 ov), 7-231 (Samit Patel, 46.4 ov), 8-231 (Matt Prior, 46.5 ov), 9-235 (Stuart Broad, 47.5 ov), 10-240 (James Anderson, 48.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.5 caught at third man! Gambhir gives Flintoff the charge and throws his bat at a short of a length delivery outside off stump, the ball flies off the thick edge and goes straight to Broad at third man, England have the early breakthrough 31/125.2 caught! That flew to Collingwood at tremendous speed and he plucked it out of the air, the length was a bit short and the line was a bit wide, the room was there for the cut and Sehwag smashed it, the ball flew above Collingwood's head at point and he jumped in the air to take a sharp catch, terrific effort and the crowd is stunned into silence, I don't think Collingwood believed he had caught it either! 125/49.1 he's bowled him!! Raina has looked completely out of sorts! His feet stayed rooted to the crease as he tried to drive a length delivery, which angled across him, on the up, Raina was aiming for the cover boundary but heard the ball cannon into the stumps off the inside edge 34/222.4 caught! Sharma moved back to cut the ball but it was too close to off stump, he got a thick edge and Prior took a sharp catch, England have broken through 107/335.6 stunned silence at Green Park! Yuvraj goes after a short ball from Flintoff and tries to pull, he gets cramped for room by the angle into him from round the wicket and hits it in the air towards deep square leg, Broad runs to his left and holds the catch 177/5Extras8 (lb 5, w 3)TOTAL198/5 (40 Overs, RR: 4.95)Fall of wickets: 1-31 (Gautam Gambhir, 6.5 ov), 2-34 (Suresh Raina, 9.1 ov), 3-107 (Rohit Sharma, 22.4 ov), 4-125 (Virender Sehwag, 25.2 ov), 5-177 (Yuvraj Singh, 35.6 ov)
