England Aims To Clinch ODI Series

ndia and England will face-off again at Lord's on Sunday amidst chances of of rain. England is ahead at 2-0 and is in a dominant position.

At best, India can win the next two games starting with Lord's and draw level. Dhoni said that his team is always high on motivation though the results have been poor.

The tour has turned out to be a nightmare and a distant precedent can be seen in India's visit to Australia during 1999-2000 when Sachin Tendulkar's men lost all the three Tests and won just one among the eight ODIs of the Cartlon and United Series that also featured Pakistan, reports The Hindu.

At rain-swept Chester-le-Street and in the Oval, India had those little moments but England has reigned. “We need to perform together,” Dhoni said while individual sparks emanated from Parthiv Patel, Ajinkya Rahane, Ravindra Jadeja and R. Ashwin at different points in this series. On Friday, the top-order collapsed, Dhoni and Jadeja revived and the spinners made the English batsmen nervously twitch. In the end it just did not add up.
