Second ODI, England Tour of India 2017 (Barabati Stadium, Cuttack)
The ODI series leg of England tour of India in 2017 was inarguably the highest scoring 3-match in the history of ODI cricket, with a score of 300 or more being scored in each of the 6 innings of the series.
While the first and the final match of that series were memorable in their own rights, courtesy 2 career-defining knocks by Kedar Jadhav, it was the 2nd fixture that earns the title as the most memorable one from the trio, and there are three legends responsible for that - Yuvraj Singh, MS Dhoni, and Eoin Morgan.
The two Indian stalwarts, who came out to bat at the lost of 2nd and 3rd wicket, shared a record partnership of 256 runs for the 4th wicket, with Yuvraj playing his career best knock of 150 runs and Dhoni also scoring 134 runs. This propelled India to a gargantuan total of 381/6 in 50 overs.
England had a phenomenal start thanks to fifties by Roy and Root, but it was the knock by Eoin Morgan that gave Indians a scare during the final overs. Scoring 102 runs from 81 balls, Morgan took the team very close to the target, but his wicket in the penultimate over made way for India's 15 run win as England ended with only 366/8 in 50 overs.
