India beat England by 15 runs, seal series

India clinched three match series 2-0 after defeating England by 15 runs in the second One-Day International at Cuttack last night. At the Barabati Stadium, India compiled a massive total of 381 for six after being put into bat on flat track. In reply, England despite skipper Eoin Moragan's 102, could manage only 366 for 8 in the stipulated 50 overs. In the Indian innings, centuries of Yuvraj Singh and Mahendra Singh Dhoni helped the team recover from a precarious 25 for 3 inside five overs. The two added 256 runs for the fourth wicket. Yuvraj made 150 which was his 14th ODI hundred. It was also his career best knock in One Day Internationals. Dhoni scored 134 which was his 10th ODI hundred. Yuvraj Singh was adjudged Man of the Match. Earlier, India pulled off an incredible three-wicket win over England in the first One Day International match in Pune. The third and final game is slated to be played in Kolkata on January 22.
