India won second ODI against England

All the talk emerging from the England camp post the drubbing at Rajkot, about the need for them to get their attitude right, seemed to bear fruit, when they came out charging early on in the second one-day international at Indore and reduced India, who had opted to bat first, to 29 for 3 in the first ten overs. Stuart Broad made good use of the conditions, and reaped the benefit of bowling the right lengths on a wicket that was two-paced. He landed one full and got it to jag back into Virender Sehwag (1), found the inside edge of the Indian opener’s bat and saw the ball crash into his stumps; in his next over, he aimed one at Suresh Raina’s (4) rib cage, and the pitch came to his assistance. The ball stopped on the southpaw who was shaping to work the ball to the leg side, took the leading edge of the bat and lobbed to Samit Patel at squareleg.
