Inn Break
So the series is evenly poised as England have come back into this to level the 3-game series. India will look to bounce back from this disappointment and put on a show in the decider. The series decider is now well set. The third and final ODI of this series and tour will be played on Sunday, 28th March. That game will begin at 1330 local (0800 GMT). Make sure you join us for that one. Till then, goodbye and take care!
For his magnificent century, Jonny Bairstow is named the Player of the Match! Bairstow says that he was disappointed to miss out in the last game but is delighted to get across in this one. Bairstow tells that he has had too many chats with Dominic Cork. Jokes if he has more he will cuss him. Bairstow says that the plan was the same, to go out there and put pressure on the bowlers. Bairstow says that it is natural with Roy. Bairstow says India bowled well at the top and they accepted it. Tells they knew they both could make up for the lost time and hopes that partnership with Roy continues. Tells the six over deep cover is the one which the lads enjoyed the most so that will be his favorite.
Jos Buttler, England skipper, says that he is delighted with the response of the boys. Buttler feels they put in a good bowling show as well. Tells that India played well in the last 10 overs but credits his bowlers for the way they bowled in the middle overs and restricting them to the total they did. On Bairstow and Roy, he says that they have been pillars of their strength and he is delighted for Jonny, as he got such a big score and his partnership with Stokes, was thrilling to watch. Feels that as a fellow player and a fan, it was brilliant to watch them bat. Adds they always want to commit to the brand of cricket that they play. Says that they just thought that Ali was got into the middle and he allowed them to be flexible. Says that Moeen has enjoyed bowling with Rashid too. Tells that they are looking forward to the series decider on Sunday.
Indian skipper, Virat Kohli says they set up a decent total. Tells they started well with the new ball but credits England as they still found a way to get their way. Tells England blew them away with their partnership and tells they thoroughly deserved to win. Kohli feels dew did not play any factor. Tells the wicket settles down under lights and tells when two best teams go head to head one will come out on top convincingly. Tells tonight was a case of lack of execution but also tells they did not give anything. Kohli says they need to manage Hardik's body and understand where they need his skillset with the ball. Tells it is a bit of workload management with him and they want to make sure that they manage him well as he is an important player in all three formats. Tells they lost two wickets early but managed to get partnerships. Says he is happy as Rahul got runs. Tells that Pant's innings gave them extra runs. Kohli tells he has never played for hundreds and he will continue to play that way. Feels that is the reason he got so many. Adds one does not look at the milestone at the end of the career but just see how one has played the game. Kohli says both teams will be optimistic heading into the decider and says one has to be better on the day.
Stay tuned for the presentation as we hear from the captain and find out who the Man of the Match is!
One of the stars of the chase, Ben Stokes is caught for a chat. Stokes says that it was a brilliant chase and tells they did not go against their values in this chase after faltering in the last game. Stokes tells that the wicket was better. Adds they do not fear too much and when they go out they try to play positively. Tells that they just look to go out there and express themselves. Tells they talk about match ups and he decided to take the spinners and let Jonny do his things. Stokes says that the amount of runs they have scored is amazing. Adds their strike rate is incredible. Stokes says it is good when the series goes to the decider.
Earlier in the evening, after being put to bat. India responded well. Though they lost their openers early, the hosts managed to get to 336 courtesy of a ton from KL Rahul, fifties from Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant and some power hitting towards the end from Hardik. That century from KL Rahul though went in vain as the pitch was a paradise to bat and 336 was not good enough for India to seal the series. The English bowlers got pasting too but Topley impressed as he grabbed 2 wickets.
No fairytale comeback for the Indian bowlers this time around. They were taken to the cleaners by the trio of Roy, Bairstow, and Stokes. Especially Stokes and Bairstow. Everyone paid the price. Krishna and Bhuvneshwar were spared a bit and were the only two bowlers to get into the wickets column. The spin duo of Krunal and Kuldeep were particularly targetted as the former went for 12 rpo while Kuldeep went for 84 in his 10 overs. It will be interesting to see how the duo comeback after this pasting and what holds for Kuldeep in particular.
Chasing 337, England once again got off to a brilliant start. Roy and Bairstow were motoring the chase nicely with both the openers getting to their fifties and stitching a 110-run stand. A confusion between the pair ended the stand as Roy was run out. It looked liked India would fight back just like the previous game but Stokes came out looking like his superstar self. The pair of Bairstow and Stokes showed their strength and might with their incredible power-hitting. The duo added 175-runs for the second wicket with Bairstow getting a ton while Stokes agonizingly and heartbreaking fell for 99. The pair struck 17 sixes between themselves with 10 of them coming off Stokes's bat. The two well-set batters departed in quick succession while, skipper, Buttler too followed them. Those three wickets in 9 balls might have scared the World Champions. Debutant Livingstone and Malan though ensured there were no hiccups and took the side over the line.
A brilliant chase by England! They have managed to chase 337 comfortably and just like the T20I series, the ODIs will also need a tie-breaker game between the two of the best sides in the world to determine who will win the series. A win that was set up by Jonny Bairstow's bravo innings and Ben Stokes' magical knock.

Ball Tracker rolls in and it shows that the ball is pitching outside leg.

OUT! BOWLED! A corker of a yorker and the skipper departs for a duck. India are right back in this game. A picture-perfect yorker on middle and off. Buttler looks to defend but he cannot get his bat down in time. The ball sneaks between the turf and the bat to go and hit the poles. 3rd wicket in 9 balls and India have come out of the dead once again. Pressure on England now. What a brilliant yorker from Prasidh Krishna! You can be one of the best batter but that ball would get the better of you more often than not!

Bairstow leans forward and looks to drive it on the up. He times it well but uppishly hits it straight to the man at short cover. Virat Kohli there makes no mistake and takes a good catch. 50 needed in 83 balls now. Are we set to see another collapse from the World Champions? Surely not, right?

Bhuvneshwar Kumar To Ben Stokes OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Heartbreaking for Stokes as he misses out on a century by a run. Stokes departs for 99 and it is a soft dismissal. He deserved a ton but sometimes you do not get what you deserve and unfortunately, that is what has happened with Stokes. Stokes looks up to the skies, seems to apologize to his late father but one can be sure that he would look down on his son from heaven and would be really proud of him. Short ball, a very well bowled bumper as Bhuvi knows Stokes would go after him. It is on the leg side, Stokes looks to pull but gets a glove to it on its way to the keeper. Pant takes the catch and it is a muted celebration from the Indians. End of a brilliant knock, one of the best knocks in recent times. Stokes walks off disappointed and does a hand gesture to remember his late father.

DRINKS! It is going all England's way! Unlike the previous game, the tourists have not let the hosts get into the game so far. They lost Roy but Stokes and Bairstow have continued their merry way. The pair have brought up their century stand with Jonny reaching a bravo century. Stokes is just run away from reaching his fifty. The tourists need another 126 runs off 114 balls to win this. The only way India can ensure that does not happen is by getting wickets.

Kuldeep Yadav To Jonny Bairstow
SIX! HUNDRED FOR BAIRSTOW! He missed out in the previous game but he has ensured to get it this time. Brings up the 200 as well for England. This has been a knock of high-class caliber with serious skill and sensibility. A summer present from Kuldeep for Bairstow to get to his milestone. A tossed up ball on middle, Bairstow goes across the line and tonks it over the mid-wicket fence for a biggie.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar To Ben Stokes
NOT OUT! That was as close as one can get! Nothing conclusive and hence Stokes has survived. A very casual approach from Stokes but luckily for him he has survived. Fuller on middle, Stokes plays it to the right of deep mid-wicket. Kuldeep is the fielder there who gets to the ball. Stokes is very casual in his approach for the second. He thinks Kuldeep to be one of the slower fielders in the side but Kuldeep manages to score a direct hit at the keeper's end. The umpire takes it upstairs. Time for the replays. It rolls and the T.V. umpire has a lot of look as Stokes' bat is very close to the line. Nothing conclusive and that works in Stokes' favour.
Direct hit! Not much excitement from the Indian players but these are always touch and go. Let's see what the replays have to say.

NOT OUT! It is missing the stumps! Flighted delivery on off, Stokes does not offer a shot and gets hit on the pads. The bowler appeals for lbw but the umpire denies it. India review it. Ball Tracker shows that impact is outside off and it is missing the wickets.
Has Kuldeep got the better of Stokes straightaway? Ben has not picked the googly and he has shouldered arms to it. The ball has hit the pad. Is the ball turning enough?
Who will walk out at number 3? It will be Ben Stokes.

Kuldeep Yadav To Jonny Bairstow OUT!
OUT! RUN OUT! A brilliant bit of fielding from Rohit Sharma has seen the back of the opening stand. Is this the breakthrough India needed to get back in this game? Floated on middle and off, Bairstow hits it to the right of short mid-wicket. Bairstow and Roy look for the run. Roy is not confident though. Both batters are ball-watching and find one another in midway, at no man's land. Rohit dives and makes a tremendous stop. Rohit then sends a good throw to Pant at the keeper's end. He does the rest and an anticlimatic end to Roy's innings.

SIX! Bairstow gets his fifty in style. Tossed up in the slot for Bairstow. Jonny goes downtown and smokes it over the ropes for a biggie. His 15th in this format and Jonny continues his form from the last game.
DRINKS! Another superb start for England. This has not been as destructive as it was a few days ago but they are slowly changing gears. England would have been easy favourites here but the collapse a few days back has ensured that England are not overwhelming favourites at this point. India though need wickets to get back in this game. They managed to do that in the last game, can they do it again?

Powerplay 2 signaled! Now a maximum of 4 fielders can be placed outside the 30-yard circle till the 40th over. The field can spread out so Kohli has decided to bring spin into the attack. Kuldeep Yadav is into the attack.

Shardul Thakur To Jonny Bairstow
FOUR! Ahh.. lovely! Length ball outside off, Bairstow is quick to get on his back foot. He punches it with timing through covers for a boundary. A very good Powerplay 1 for England. Not as destructive as the previous game but they are ahead of India at this stage and have not lost any wickets while India had lost 2.
