Get highlights of India vs England, 2nd ODI here.

Indian captain Virat Kohli after the match: We were wondering if we had a good start where we were going to end up. 25/3, scoring at four runs an over and ending up with 381 was incredible.

Both the spinners coming off a strong Test series has been a strong point for us. The way they struck in the middle overs and pulled things back for us for useful. I think we are playing up to only 75 percent of out potential.

England captain Eoin Morgan after the match: We weren't at our best today. Disappointed to get very close and not manage to get over the line. We weren't at our best today with the ball and to bowl to Dhoni and Yuvraj with the bats these days and the five men inside the circle is never easy. We showed a lot of fight

Man of the Match Yuvraj Singh after receiving the award: I have been hitting the ball really well and working very hard on my fitness and the results showed today. Yes, the lady luck is there and the blessings of my mother and mu Guruji have helped me here.

I rate this innings as my best because I started my career as a lower order batsman but getting a chance to play long helped me here. I had a lot of belief in myself and spoke to Sanjay and told him that a big one was coming soon. 

21:59 IST: Yuvraj Singh receives the Man of the Match for his brilliant 150-run knock. And he says "It's by best knock". Hope you enjoyed our live blog. Catch our live updates again on January 22 in the third ODI of the series. Adios!

— BCCI (@BCCI) January 19, 2017

12:30 IST: Hello and welcome! It's the all important second ODI at Cuttack and England will be looking to avoid a series loss and take the series to Kolkata. Virat Kohli-led India will be aiming to wrap up the series here and make the 3rd ODI a mere formality.

While the Indian batting looks to be firing on all cylinders, Kohli would be a little worried about his team's bowling which took quite a beating at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium. A similar performance would mean more pressure on the batsmen, especially on the likes of the captain and Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

Pacers Umesh Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah were particularly expensive in the first ODI and could not keep a check on their full tosses and no balls, in their attempt to bowl yorkers.

The Cuttack game is also a chance for both Dhoni and Yuvraj, who have won India several matches in the past together, to spend some valuable time at the crease. Though, Dhoni batted well in the practice game at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai ahead of the series, a good outing in an official game will definitely boost his confidence.
