England win comfortably despite Ashwin's fightback

Cricket Stumps bat black logo

Ravichandran Ashwin was the highlight of the day yesterday and for a brief time today when he was batting as well as bowling.He made a score of 91 runs and remained not out and took two wickets of England before they won comfortably by 7 wickets.Virendar Sehwag yesterday blasted at the Indian Batting stating they did not show any patience and that was the only reason for their downfall.I totally agree with that over the years the Indian Cricket team have become world champions and one of the best teams in the one day format.The question mark still remains on their test match form.With only one test left India has a slight hope to level series to deny England a victory.It will be interesting to see what changes they make going into the last test match.Below are the highlights of the day along with the scorecard of the final day.

Highlights Of The Day:

India:

Ravichandran Ashwin - 91(157)* and 2 wickets

England:

James Andreson and Steve Fin - 3 Wickets

Ian Bell - 28(28)*
