Yuvraj and Pathan shape India's win over England

India Cricket Match Test ODI News Indian Cricket News Photos Indian Cricket Team:

"The 24-year-old Yuvraj struck three sixes and 10 fours in his 76-ball 103, his seventh hundred in one-dayers, as India posted a challenging 294-6 before restricting England to 245 in hot and humid conditions on Monday.
England all-rounder Paul Collingwood gave a good account of himself, top-scoring with a brave 84-ball 93 which included one six and 10 fours. He put on 105 for the seventh wicket with Geraint Jones (32), but the stand came too late to stop India from gaining a 3-0 lead in the seven-match series. England were virtually out of the game when they lost six wickets for 100, but Collingwood and Jones defied the Indian attack with their responsible knocks under pressure.
Pathan removed Andrew Strauss (seven), Owais Shah (seven) and Ian Blackwell (nine), who was promoted in the batting order, with clever variations in pace. "
