Raina falls for 46 as India slip further

July 14, 2018 22:04

India 157-5 (32 ovs) vs England 322-7 | Scorecard

India's job has got a lot difficult following Kohli's dismissal but veteran Mahendra Singh Dhoni is capable and has the required experience.

Raina will need to score more freely and take some pressure off Dhoni at the other end and also keep the asking rate under check.

The batsmen have found the going difficult against the spinners as Rashid bowls a quiet over, his third, conceding just five.

Moeen, who has been quite miserly so far, makes most of the turn on offer as he bowls another excellent over giving away just a single as Dhoni plays four dot balls in a row.

Raina struggles to get the ball away as he takes a single off the fourth ball off Rashid after playing three dot balls in a row. Dhoni picks a single off the last ball as India struggle to 148 for four in 30 overs, with the run rate dropping the five runs per over mark.

Raina has slowed considerably in the last few overs, scoring 44 from 59 balls, while Dhoni has made two. They need 175 runs from the remaining 20 overs for victory at an asking rate which is nearing the nine mark.

Raina's frustration ends as he is bowled by the wrong one from Rashid trying to play the cross batted heave after he struggled to 46 from 63 balls.

The two spinners have picked up a wicket each, while giving away just 42 runs in 12 overs bowled between them.
