alt
In the end, however, the on-field umpire reversed his decision and England batsman was given a lifeline.
alt
Morgan, batting on 102, was England's best player on the day and almost single-handedly brought his side close to chasing down India's huge total of 381 runs.
alt
Yuvi smashed his best-ever ODI knock of 150 runs against England in at Cuttack rose many eyebrows and virtually sealed the mouths of those doubting his ability.

With the 15-run defeat in Cuttack, England have now conceded the series 2-0 with the last ODI Kolkata yet to be played.

He reached the landmark by taking single off the 32nd over, bowled by Jake Ball.
alt
Dhoni, from the non-striker's end, suggested Yuvraj take the review. 
alt
This is his first ODI hundred against England, and 10th overall. But, surprisingly, it came after 55 match.
alt
Yuvi scored his career-best score of 150 off 127 balls, and helped India reach a big total of 381/6 in 50 overs.
alt
Coming into bat when India were struggling at 25/3, Yuvi and outgoing skipper Mahendra Singh produced a middle-over stand of highest quality.

alt
India has had a good record at the Barabati Stadium, where they have won 11 out of their 15 ODI games.
