5 talking points as Reece Topley leads England to stunning 100-run win over India

England levelled the ODI series against India with a stunning 100-run victory, Moeen Ali and David Willey leading a lower-order fightback before Reece Topley took 6-24 - England’s best-ever ODI figures.

After getting thrashed in the first ODI at the Oval, England bounced back at Lord's to post a decent total of 246 after falling to 102-5. Yuzvendra Chahal starred for India, picking up 4-47 and taking three massive early wickets in Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root and Ben Stokes.

However, Moeen shared crucial partnerships worth 46 with Liam Livingstone and then 62 with Willey, helping England reach a total that proved to be more than enough. With the ball, the hosts began brilliantly with Topley and Willey taking the new ball.
