India Completes the shameful series without winning even a single International Match.In the 5th ODI match held at Sophia Gardens England Claimed a 6 Wicket Victory Over India.
India had set a challenging total of 6-304 at Glamorgan's Sophia Gardens, their first score of more than 300 runs in the last 14 ODIs between the two teams.
But a rain delay in Cardiff forced a reduction of overs, with the Duckworth-Lewis method setting the hosts a revised target of 241 from 34 overs.England reached the target with the loss of 4 wickets in 32.2 overs with a run rate of 7.45
The Yorkshire Batsman Jonny Bairstow, who scored a 41 from 21 makes the difference for England.Bairstow helps England to Score the needed 75 from 50 balls.
The Great Wall Leaves...
In His Last ODI Match Rahul Dravid Scores a 69 off 79 balls and Ended His Last ODI match decently. But His desire to bid goodbye with a victory did not come true.Personally this is a tour which Rahul can ever remember, because the BCCI forced to trust on him when all other newbies and oldies of Team India repeatedly showing their traditional fear for seem bowling and failed to set up a decent score. In His farewell match the entire stadium and both team gave Dravid a good round of applause.
Rahul in his last match
