India vs Englad: 6th ODI
Wow!!. What a match it was! First of all, i never expected that England would cross 250, but they did (thnx to the lower order for hitting huge sixes n fours) and then India fought hard to win the game atlast in the final over with two ball left.
The openers (Ganguly and Sachin) continued their excellent performance with 150 runs partnership between them and laid the solid foundation for the other players to come and hit. I was surprised at Rahul's choice of sending in Gambhir as one-down batsman instead of specialist hitter, Robin Uthappa. Fortunately, Uthappa played a major role, infact i would say, single handedly won the game, playing in the lower order for India.
