India won the first odi against england

hey guys...india scored like 387 runs against england..their record bestt........sehwag and gambhir started off nicely with a 137 run partnership...and then raina and yuvraj carried on..for almost another 100 odd runs....well..then yuvi caaught fire and he went up to a 100 in just 62 balls and then 137 in just 74 balls.his fastest and the second fastest by any indian..india scored its record total on thsi ground...and dhoni managed to get some 40 odd runs at the end....too...well indian sbatted really nicely and so there were rumours about this just being a great pitch about batting...but apparently not.....england was just not into its right gear....well the indian peak bowlersd in teh form of zaheer and munaaf...took 5 wickets in the firts 10 overs...crackling up teh top order...when half the team was back in pavillion...that was teh time when the captain pietersen stood in the way of indias victory..and offered some resistance..with part time batsmens...but on a day like this, like pietersen puts it "you just cannot do much"....and so england ended up loosing the game by almost 150 runs..one of their biggets losses....even with flintoff joining the side...we hope india goes on with the same momentum..and england has something better to give to india in teh next odi.....so that its a close competetion and a fun to watch game....
