| England innings (target: 301 runs from 50 overs) | R | M | B | 4s | 6s | SR |
 | AN Cook* | c Vinay Kumar b Jadeja | 60 | 107 | 63 | 7 | 0 | 95.23 |
| 22.4 94.7 kph, gone! There's the breakthrough as Cook gives it away. Uses his feet and tries to clear the boundary at deep midwicket but can only pick out the boundary rider 111/3 |
| C Kieswetter† | c †Dhoni b Kumar | 7 | 13 | 8 | 1 | 0 | 87.50 |
| 2.2 127.6 kph, edged, and gone! Praveen has struck with the new ball. He zinged one down on a full length and got the ball to seam away from Kieswetter, who fished at it away from his body and sent a clear edge through to Dhoni. India will be mightily pleased with this early strike, which will stall England's hopes of attacking the new ball 7/1 |
| KP Pietersen | run out (Ashwin) | 19 | 34 | 29 | 3 | 0 | 65.51 |
| 9.1 from Vinay Kumar, Pietersen is run out! Where was the dive? He nudged to mid on and set off - as he has done a couple of times in the last few overs - but this time the fielder sprinted in quickly and fired in a shy, finding KP inches short. It was Ashwin with the throw, and the crowd are cheering Pietersen's demise 40/2 |
| IJL Trott | b Jadeja | 26 | 65 | 42 | 0 | 0 | 61.90 |
| 24.4 86.8 kph, gone! Back-to-back wickets for India and both set batsmen have gone. An ugly shot from Trott as he tries a big sweep and the ball hits leg stump. So it's 26 off 42 balls for Trott. That won't silence the debates 120/4 |
| RS Bopara | c & b Ashwin | 8 | 11 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 80.00 |
| 25.6 81.9 kph, gone! And another. England falling apart as Bopara drives a return catch to Ashwin. Defeat in the air and early on the shot. Simple take for the bowler 124/5 |
| JM Bairstow | c & b Jadeja | 3 | 8 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 42.85 |
| 26.5 86.7 kph, gone! This is a proper collapse and now Bairstow chips a return catch. Went for the drive, played it firmly, and Jadeja's held a regulation chance. What a spell for him. England falling fast 126/6 |
| SR Patel | b Yadav | 16 | 30 | 18 | 2 | 0 | 88.88 |
| 33.5 136.9 kph, well, that was unnecessary. The last shot was classy, this one was just atrocious. He knows the ball is keeping low, but he swings merrily across the line at a straight length delivery, and is cleaned up. And that's about it for England. Dernbach comes out to face the music, and this shouldn't take long 163/9 |
| TT Bresnan | st †Dhoni b Ashwin | 4 | 7 | 8 | 1 | 0 | 50.00 |
| 29.3 89.0 kph, that's No. 7, a real old-style England collapse. Fired down the leg side which beat Bresnan as he came down the pitch. MS Dhoni was very alert with a smart stumping 134/7 |
| GP Swann | b Yadav | 8 | 8 | 9 | 1 | 0 | 88.88 |
| 31.4 131.4 kph, undone by the low bounce! He should've been on his guard after that last delivery. Yadav moved his line a little straighter but again Swann swished across the line, again a low, scuttling delivery buzzed under his bat, but this time it clattered into the stumps. Swann has an accusatory look at the pitch as he walks off, but that's not the first one to have kept low today 148/8 |
| ST Finn | not out | 18 | 19 | 18 | 1 | 1 | 100.00 |
| |
| JW Dernbach | b Ashwin | 2 | 9 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 40.00 |
| 36.1 all over! Dernbach has a massive mow across the line, is beaten by an offspinner and loses his leg bail. Ashwin ends the game with his third wicket, and this was a real whomping 174/10 |
| Extras | (w 3) | 3 | | | | | |
|  | | | | | |
| Total | (all out; 36.1 overs; 160 mins) | 174 | (4.81 runs per over) |
