NEW DELHI: India continued their unbeaten run in the ongoing ICC ODI World Cup with a resounding victory over defending champions England on Sunday. The sixth consecutive triumph catapulted the hosts to the summit of the points table.
Skipper Rohit Sharma, leading from the front, delivered a valiant performance with 87 runs off 101 balls, guiding the team to a challenging total of 229 for 9 in the demanding conditions of Lucknow. However, it was India's formidable bowlers who stole the show, working in perfect harmony to dismantle England's batting lineup, restricting them to a mere 129 in 34.5 overs.
